Greetings from New York!

We've had a great few days staying in Chelsea, Manhatten. Chelsea is a really nice neighbourhood, lovely brown stone houses covered in fire escapes and ivy. We have done everything we could that was free in order to extend beer money - staten island ferry to see Lady Liberty, Central Park, top to bottom, and a good amount of walking around soaking it all in. We also met Rob for some lovely cocktails at the top of a posh hotel which wasn't free but was very nice indeed!!

Some things we have heard along the way...

Two men talking in West village: "The problem is that when you put your house on the market for 5 million everybody does and then sure enough you've got loads of 5 million houses"

70+ old lady in central park: "I've just started a photography course, my mother always said I was a late bloomer"

John to Waitress: "Please can we have the same again?" Waitress to John (without missing a beat): "So just to check, you want the same again?"
