United Nations and Tudor City, New York, Wednesday August 6th 2014
Wlked along 50th St to the East River and via St Bartholomew's Church. Gorgeous vaulted ceilings and stained glass window.
No crowds in this area and easy to walk. Then to the United Nations and to Tudor City. You get fantastic views of the United Nations from Tudor City and we are surprised that more tourists do not go there.
We then walked via 41st St to Grand Central for a wee stop. Then walked to Times Square to get our train back to 72nd St. I wish the average New Yorker could tell me the exact demarcation of Duffy Square and Times Square. I think Duffy Square has been swallowed up into Times Square. But it is triangle bordered by 45th and 47th Streets and Broadway and 7th Avenue.
We discussed about the lemmings mentality of many tourists who are probably only here for three to five days. That is not enough. Do immersion travel and do thing well. Study the history and really engage and enjoy New York City!

Crown Lager should be readily available in New York. This is a huge missed opportunity in New York by Carlton and United Brewery
Still shocked that it is so difficult to get an A4 size laminated map of Central Park.
Hey guys there is a missed opportunity here.
