my turn now

This blog was my idea and honestly I just can`t get to use it! Brian is hogging it while i`m asleep. Well I loved the plane, is that normal? The girl next to me ate for england, she took everything on offer extra wine etc. Then when she`d finished that out came a packed lunch that she`d bought from boots! When she got up to get her luggage from the overhead locker not a glimmer of a muffin top! bitch! We fell into the trap of getting the manhatton bus instead of a taxi (surprise surprise) Well it was the oldest and dirtiest bus you have ever seen and then we had to change buses! oh better not moan hotel is lovely. It is nice having nothing to do. Anyway if I get the chance I will write again. Betty x x

Well after settling into our hotel last night we found a little irish bar around the corner and had a couple of drinks, we were not that hungry after eating on the plane and not moving around that much.Anyway we had an early start this morning at about 6.30 we got up and were out just after eight,we watched the weather forecast before we went out and they forecast between 6 and 12 inches of snow today and overnight which should make things a little interesting.We walked up to times square where we picked up the city sights tour coach which you can hop on and off at various points around manhattan,the only problem being was that it was snowing really hard and you had difficulty seeing the points of interest (we will give it another go tomorrow ,hopefully the snow will have stopped).Plenty of eating places around where you can get food of any type,most of the places seem as if you just choose what you want and weigh it and you pay so much per kilo the same for breakfast as well.Its amazing how many yellow cabs are buzzing around new york and all managing to find customers, sometimes the roads are full of just taxis,You certainly know when a fire truck wants to get past the sound of the siren and its horns soon make the other vehicles move over,the grid system really makes finding your way around very easy but you loose that when you go down to the old part around the financial district ,little italy and chinatown .Just about to figure out how to put photos onto the blog bare with us its all new.
