After the previous days excursion our legs were definately feeling it,we had walked from Battery Park to 47th street taking in the Brooklyn Bridge and Little Italy where we stopped for a couple of hours for a very nice meal and other various sites along the way a good few miles were covered so we felt a little rest and a few bus rides around the northern part of Manhattan taking in Harlem would be good.So we enjoyed a little guided tour sat upon a red double decker bus letting someone else doing the driving lol.This is the first time ive been into the northern part there are loads of museums along this route and plenty to take in.We passed the Famous Dakota Building (where John Lennon lived and Yoko still does)on 72nd street,this is really nic

really good to see Manhattan at night from this most beautiful building,unfortuanately Lady Pen has most of the night pictures on her Camera but i think the one i took looks pretty nice.Well we headed back down to terra firma and off to catch another bus,the one we were going on was little tour down to lower Manhattan then over The Manhattan bridge over to Brooklyn, again something i wanted to do in the day but didn't have time,it was really a nice way to see New York and our guide certainly helped.,this little tour ended back at Times Square,so off we went for some well earn't Dinner before we finally cal
