Start Spreading the News - wait I'm already home

Well I am not leaving today but I have already come and gone. Yes people my trip to New York has come to an end. So yes I could potentially go through every moment. Every story, but that would take to long and there would be a gap at the beginning. Due to extreme tiredness. Next time I go to NYC no red eye flight. Its not a good idea. The week was filled with remember this.

Cris: Remember this
Me: No
Cris: Well It happened on our first day.
Me: Really was it fun?

Some highlights

Walking through the UN building.
Going to the NY Public Library – getting a library card with the worlds worst picture on it.
The top of the empire state building – there was no line it was great!
Cheesecake!
Meeting a fab couple from Slovenia and going on a short 35 block walk to a very good jazz club called Terra Blues. Side note - when in New York and you want to know if its a short walk. Don't ask a native New Yorker - consult a map.
Coming home with money in the back – yes folks that is right I did not go into debt. I have money left over. So its like 20 bucks. Still better then nothing.
Walking walking and more walking.
SOHO – I would live in soho. (The puma store is in soho)
Getting a great new bag from Bilabong
Ground Zero – it was surprisingly moving. If you go – go.
Learning the subway system. Yes after a few mistakes I believe I can navigate the Subway system in NYC.
Meeting numerous Canadians just through the subject of hockey.
In the library –
Couple – I wonder if Calgary Won last night
Me – no they lost
C – really shocking
Me – where are you from
C – Edmonton
On the staten island ferry after hearing some young kids go “I can’t believe Detroit lost” Us: Wooohooo
In the hostal – there was a whole group
Many Many more
Cristina always being from Toronto unless we were talking about hockey then she felt the need to tell people she used to be from Edmonton


Ok so I said there would be a few highlights but I’ll stop now cause there are many more.

Future posts to come with off course pictures attached!
