3rd Day In New York

Welllll the day started well, we both awake to fine a chinese guy sleeping on the other side of the room. We've decided that this place doesn't exactly fit our ideas of what a hostel should be like. As opposed to it being populated by hip young people much like ourselves, the main clientele so far appears to be middle aged men! We looked out our window and suprise suprise its snowing, but this isn't the kind of snow you can enjoy, it was too cold and windy, so we walked around looking for breakfast. So for breakfast we went to a deli (very New York) in the Upper East Side where we both payed around 1o$ for a bowl of fruit and a drink. Eating healthy so isn't worth it! We then braved the snow and set out for Central Park, well that place looks even better in the snow, loads of people sledging and having snowball fights. After half an hour of trudging round we find ourselves outside of the Metropolitan Art Museum. The museum was quite good however we rapidly became disenchanted due to our aching thighs, constant hunger and the sheer monotony of the exhibits! We did like the american landscape art exhibit which was easily some of the most amazing pieces of art i'd ever seen. All of them at least 6 feet wide and with the artists paying amazing attention to detail. Anyway we left there starving and ready for lunch which came in the little cafe called the Central Park Boat Cafe, situated suprisingly in the centre of the park next to a lake. After that we went to the Natural History Museum which was good for the most part a highligh being the Journey To The Stars narrated by Whoopi Goldberg. We couldnt find the big whale or the little models featured in The Night At The Museum. Big Disappointment. We did find the big head and the dinosaur though. We left around 5 and walked back to the hostel. As im writing this now Henry is searching the internet for a new hostel for us to sleep in tomorrow night so this may be the last you hear from us for a while as the next place might not have internet. Sianara folks.
