Day Five Woke up around 8, went out for breakfast this time. Went to this resturant around the corner. it was cheaper than the hotel. and better too! Walked through central park one last time. Went back to the hotel, made sure we had everything packed and ready to go. The bus arrived…

Woke up at 3:45 am, got ready, hopped in my cab and was off to JFK. I knew I needed to get to the airport a little early because from prior experience I knew the lines would be long. They're always long for the flights to the Caribbean.  I arrived at JFK, got in line and was told my flight wou…

At our hotel nearby to the Penn Station we are allocated the Coney Island Room and indeed the walls are painted with scenes from Coney Island including a mermaid and ferris wheels.  As it starts to get dark we go out on our ritual exploring walk.  The streets are hyper and it is disconcer…

Cuba something different everyone's friendly, and beautiful beach

Backpacking around the world in 80 days. Try and figure out where I am or will be next.

8:30 pm local time, the captain turns on the seatbelt sign as we are about to land at JFK. I finally wanted to find out whether it’s true what they say about New York. I especially remembered one quote from a movie, most likely Woody Allen saying: “The true New Yorkers understand that peopl…

My friend and I drove down to Philadelphia for a few hours just to get out of the house.

I have arived safely in NYC at JFK. I will never take this route again!!  Once you get to the United Terminal you have to change terminals to get to South African Air.... and guess what? You have to leave one building, go to another building and go through security check in all over again... o…

Road trip from NYC to Niagara Falls, December 2006

Ok, We arrived in New York on the 10th, went to to look around central park on the first day. Then went on to do all the sights of new york in the next few days. We went up the rockerfeller centre, and the empire state building (at night), times square, 5th avenue, the UN, staton island ferry …

i love new york! (more to come)

We are leaving for Paris and Rome for 7 days tomorrow evening. We've managed to pack all of our belongings in to two carry-on roller bags and my large purse. I don't think I could handle losing luggage in a foreign country...especially on our first trip over the pond. Miraculously, we are not "roug…
