Hello all!
I arrived in New York on about the 5th of January to meet my parents for a holiday before I started my Trek America Tour on the 16th.
It was really good to see Mum and Dad as I hadn't seen them for 4 months! The first night we were there we just had a walk around as we were all shattered and got dinner at Sbarros which is a minor obsession of my mum's since I can ever remember lol!
The next day we headed to Times Square and got tickets to see Shrek the Musical it was soooo funny I was a bit dubious to how good it would be but I was really impressed, Donkey was the funniest just like in the film! Also I spotted a celebrity!!! Lynette from Desperate Housewives ahhhhh! She was chatting to a few people in the queue for the loo and seemed really nice!
We met up with Mum and Dad's family friend Jan who took us to the Empire State Building it was freezing on the top haha but great views of the whole city.
We also went to see The Little Mermaid on broadway and it was sooooo great I have loved the film since I was a little girl and really really wanted to see it... it did not disapoint me! So wanna be Ariel when I grow up!
We went to Boston for a few days inbetween and got an upgrade on the train which was rather wasted on me as I fell asleep the whole journey haha! It was snowing and freezing in Boston but it was very winter wonderland ish which was pretty, I liked Boston the best part was going up the prudential tower and doing an audio tour of the whole city I learned loads! I'm an american history buff these days by the way haha.
When we went back to New York me and mum did a sex and the city tour which was good fun the guide was really funny and everyone on the bus was obsessed like me so it was good fun, I even got my mum to try a cosmo! That night we went to the Knicks game and it was really good because the Knicks won. I met up with David and Elaine from home because they were on holiday and seeing that game too and we grabbed a few drinks near my hotel it was good to see them and we chatted away for a few hours!
The next day I had to say bye to mum and dad again and get a train to New Jersey to start my Trek America road trip... was so nervous to meet so many new people that I will be with for a month but as usual everything turns out amazing fun!
Big thanks to Mum and Dad for coming out to see me and treating me to lots of fun things! xx
