So the evening we arrived in white plains maria drove us on to her house in Tuckahoe which is about 30mins north of manhattan. we went out for tea at mighty joes and then watched some TV back at the house. On thursday we got up and took the train from tuckahoe to Grand Central station
which is mid-town manhattan. From the station we walked down to the Empire state building
where we were confronted with a 3 hour line to get to the top! we decided that that was a bit ridiculous and walked over from
to another famous street, broadway. On broadway we first came to the famous department store maceys
where they were having a flower festival for spring which was pretty impressive
it was a short walk

Boston Hostel review: Berkeley Residence, YWCA
This place has decent location...apart from that it is distinctly average. The room was pretty rubbish especially for the price but its the location your paying for i guess. the beds were old hospital beds and there were no carpets on any of the floors. the tv room was something out of the 50s and you even have to sign a book for the tv remote! if you go here expecting to meet other travellers then your going to the wrong place, the people staying here all seem to be permanent residents, and with it being ywca they're all old women. the queue at breakfast was like a scene straight out of a retirement home...no joke zimmer frames and all! the breakfast was a positive though...
