Well hello all, I am now in NYC after a fun flight where my luggage was lost and I spent about 7 hours into the night waiting for a number of flights for it to come in on. Not to mention the altered flight as well! All fun and games, anyway I met Peter at the Empire State Building and we wandered and got lost and explored Times Square etc. Also, went up to 165th St in the Bronx....not a pretty sight and not to mention that I felt a stranger and far from home.A good experience nonetheless! All well, been shopping to a complex over in New Jersey today, about 1 hour from NYC. So cheap the clothes and my rucksack is now at bursting point!! Trainers (sorry US...sneakers), shirts, t-shirts etc. Records will come later ;-)) Peter is off back to UK tomorrow, so will meet for breakfast then get a full day in sightseeing hopefully. Gonna go see the new Russell Crowe film American Gangster if I can get tickets early. New York is intense and very noisy etc. Not representative of USA at all....a world away from the glorious scenery I have admired. It is still worth coming here, but not my scene at all...maybe I am getting old!! Too much pushing and shoving and go go go.....but at night Times Sq is awesome...totally amazing. Taxis wil lrun u over, repeat will not think twice about mowing u down!! ha ha......will check back in week.....off Tuesday to Niagara Falls then back over to Canada to Toronto....the clock is ticking..have a good week all

the weary, but happy one
