New York Dec 2008 day 3 (the one with the shoes !)

[natalielongstaff]

cast

me.....only going to buy shoes

my mum......only going because she thought of it !

DD .... only going to go ice skating

DS....only going to ride in the elevator at the empire state building

Today we set off to fulfill my reason for the trip :cool1: we got the grey line coach from the bus terminal to woodbury common outlets.

The weather was vile today it was raining heavily all day :sad2:

Our coach driver was very nice and gave us lots of helpful info advice on photos, here is a couple i took of the NY skyline

Woodbury common is huge and we went in a few shops...we were unable to find the disney or yankee candle outlets though :sad2:

I kindly helped keep john in work and spent a few dollers in gap :rotfl2: and then i managed to purchase the sacred shoes

They cost $395.00 and were worth every penny :worship: :worship:

We gave up shopping soon after and caught the bus back to NYC. to stay out of the rain we headed to Tussauds...ive not been to one of these for years but the kids really enjoyed it

After asking my OH about shoes... not being a Sex in the City fan, I went into Billy Connelly mode again :scared1: "for a pair of shoes" ;)

Think I will need to hide the credit cards and make sure there are no shopping trips while we are in USA in the summer :eek:
