The Big Apple

FINALLY, we are in New York.  What a journey…have to say flying Virgin was pretty good, can't complain.  In fact, weather gods were on our side and our flight time was only 12 hours!  Our transit through LAX was incident free, though time wise was very tight.  Flight from LA to NY was a little bumpy most of the way, but nothing bad.  NY traffic on a Sunday night is crazy, but our shuttle bus driver ensures us that its really good.  The night before (Saturday) he said it took him 45min to get down 1 street and 3 hours to go around the block!!! Far out the Bruce Highway doesn't seem so bad after hearing that!

Our hotel is literally just around the corner from BROADWAY!  As you can imagine, Emily is more than a little excited about that.  After checking in and dumping our stuff, we wondered out for food and of course a photo of Broadway.  We were so tired after our journey that we didn't wonder down the street for a looksey - tomorrow!

We just ended up getting McDonald's last night - quick, easy and cheap.  Emily was starving so decided she'd get a large meal…well, their large is mega!  I got a regular which is the equivalent of Australia's large meal.  We actually could share a large cheeseburger meal, as it comes with 2 cheeseburgers.  How sad that we can share a meal at Macca's!

Anyway, the bed is calling - loudly now.  It's going to feel so good to lie down.

Til tomorrow,
Yvette & Emily x
