New York, New York. The big city. We decided to try the metro and then walk from the bus station this time rather than paying for a taxi, it was relatively easy and the 4 or 5 block walk from the station to our hotel went fine too. We must be getting stronger!! After checking in and dumping our bags we headed straight for times square. It's as big and flashy as you imagine, and extremely busy. We wandered around times square for a while and of course we just had...

We made it to Washington. And you will all pleased to know confused lady managed to get another ticket. The rest of the journey was relatively uneventful and we arrived at our hotel early this morning. Having managed to scrounge free breakfast from the hotel we wandered into the city to see some of the sights. Our first obstacle being the metro... No probs! Found a map and on our way. So today we have seen the Washington monument, the white house and a couple of ...

We wanted to see what all the hype was about with the hunger games which seems to be huge over here at the moment. After having seen quite a few small historic...

He eventually turned up and after the slowest drive ever, we probably could of walked there faster, we ...

We jump on a bus and find the local sights. First stop we go to Forsyth park. Such a lovely day we wished we had packed up a picnic to enjoy the sunshine. We learnt that this was the park forest gump had been filmed in. All looked very familiar and left us wanting to watch the mov...
