Our first day in New York we decided to take a walk and just soak up the atmosphere.  We're staying on 42nd street and its only a quick walk to just about everything.  We walked down 5th Avenue but there was a parade - maybe something todo with Columbus Day which was the next day.  L…

Once I got back from the States, I had to do a lot of catching up with people.  A group of us had a bit of a Uni reunion one weekend and thought 'let's go to NYC' in the new year.  Great!  We organised it pretty quickly and went at the end of January.  The last time I was here, …

We landed in JFK with no problems and went through customs/immigration without a hitch. On our way to the skytrain to take to the hotel American Airlines provided us with though, I slipped a few times on the conveyor belt. I was thoroughly embarrassed as everytime I tried to walk, I would nearly fa…

Haha.. sad that the trip was over, happy to be able to incorporate a Snow White song into my journal, hehe.  Well, early in the AM, my uncle dropped off my mom and I at LaGuardia Airport probably about 5:45am.  The airlines didn't open till about 6am so we waited for what seemed like…

Woke up early today and walked down the block to grab a quick bite to eat. The weater was a bit warmer than I had expected at 47 degrees and sunny. This was still pretty cold to me since it was 70 degrees when I left L.A. I decided to walk over to Madison Square park and the Flatiron. NYC is just a…

Went up to the Montreal meetup during the July 4th weekend with Matt, Ruthie & my friend Madeline. Had a rough ride up there, but after spending time with some of my favorite people, Mario & Val, it was well worth it.

Time to go home. We knew the end was approaching. I guess everyone who has gone on a long trip has that feeling that the trip is about to end soon. We were not sad, but glad that we would be going home again, not because we had a bad trip, no, it was awesome! But it would be a good thing to be …

So we left Portsmouth at 06.30 in the morning for a nice little 22 hour trip to Panama...everything went pretty smoothly until the transfer in Newark...my first time on the american continent, and this is the welcome! The bureacracy started already a month before I started travelling when I found o…

Halfway home.  We are back in the JFK waiting area waiting for our jet for the final let home.  I am still not impressed with this airport.  We had a bit of a layover so we stopped to eat in the food court.  Not only was it highly over priced (expected) but it was hotter than I …
