| We are here!!!! |
So we are here in NYC, a little shell shocked but here.... We had a bit of culture shock when we arrived at the airport. We were picked up by this guy for a taxi, it was a bit cheaper and got to ride in a limo with 2 other couples. Sarah was getting a little freaked out but we made it safe and sound. We have done a bit of walking around near our hotel but everything is so FULL ON. We sort of feel like a fish out of water right now but I am sure we will settle in after a little while. It is a bit freaky, nothing like I have ever seen before. We are going to meet Craig for dinner and go from there. I really don't want to go out clubbing or anything, I just want to have an early night after our early start. Our hotel is in a nice spot but our room is tiny, but I expected that.
I think tomorrow we will do a bit of tour of the sights just to get our bearings, then on Monday we want to get tickets for broadway that night and do a little bit of clothes shopping. We have a list of our preferred shows for broadway. Tuesday may be the statue of liberty, not sure.
Anyway got a message from Ben he is about to head home from NZ, they didn't do so well in the baseball but he had a good time...... He wants us to go back and have a holiday soon!
Hi Kerry & Lauren, thanks for the messages. Lauren sorry we didn't hook up, but there was absolutely no time. No one has any idea what it is like unless you go on an exchange. We don't have transport here in NYC.
Ok will check in later and maybe download a few more pics...

Hi Jodie!
I'm not sure what "full on" means - both you and Sue used the word... Best wishes for NYC. It does shell-shock anyone!
Keep your wits about you wherever you go. NYC is safer than it used to be, but still, you must keep yourself always holding your bag and always looking around. Here's a secret - even when you are lost, look "alert but curious" and not to look "lost" :) That's the key.
:)
The prices in NYC are either super cheap or super expensive - you'll see! Good place to buy brand-new (ie: just invented) electronics, too!
have a great time!
Lauren
