Like I said, I really like drive to NYC...though 6hrs of driving ( actually I beat my own record: 5h30 ;) and totally safely ) but anyway...so we arrived friday night, let baggages in Yves' appartment, and go to see him at his work ( wine seller in upper west side : BACCHUS ). What a bing…

Halloween, they say it brings out the wierdness in people, with the full moon, scary stories and just the plain madness of it all. My opinion, it is a great way for folks to let off some steam and to dress up in outfits that would not be considered normal everyday attire. This was my…

Two and a half days of sailing were required to reach our first port of call, San Juan, Puerto Rico. At Noon on Thrusday, the Captain made his bridge announcemnt. Our position was 230 nautical miles off Cape Hatteras, North Carolina.

We got up early and headed out to pick up my rings from the Diamond District that were being sized and on the way back to check out of our hotel, I spotted the Build-A-Bear Workshop and suggested Brett get a bear for his niece Leni.  We picked out a High School Musical Bear and dressed her up …

For the last few weeks I have been thinking of going back to Europe! (Ok when am I NOT thinking that lol) After finishing my taxes, I figured out that I will be receiving some money from the government so what better way to spend it than being with my European friends :) I knew that Ket, Benn…

So, it's the beginning of March. Normally (when I was living in Florida) this month was a favorite because it's the month I was born. But now it happens to be even better because it's actually getting WARM up here in NYC. Finally! I can feel a bit of springtime in the air. I don't feel like my face…

Tuesday, just like all the other days so far, was FREEZING! Beth and Chris were back at work on Tuesday, so Lo and I headed into town, and got off by the Flatiron Building; a building I had always loved, but someone never managed to see in person! We took pictures of the Flatiron, and looked arou…

So I decided about a week ago I wanted to go and visit my brother and sister-in-law and also meet my nephew for the first time. He will be 1 in April... So the flights were ridiculously cheap for a direct flight from Glasgow to Newark so I just booked it! Luckily I dont need to worry about accommo…

To the most beautiful and vibrant city of the world, You are the city of the people... You represent what oppressors hate... freedom, opportunity, diversity, and a shit load of fun.  That is why they envy you and want you gone. What they don’t understand is that you create resilience a…

So...I went to New York all by myself to visit my brother. It was great. Got my early flight and it transferred at Birmingham which was strange, me being me though - I walked past my luggage and past security, when I realized what I had done security wouldn’t let me back through L. The reason I w…
