I've come to love walking the streets of New York. Every time you turn a street or go a different way you discover something new, unusual, breathtaking. Sunday morning of 9/11 started around 8am. I'd decided to go in search for decent coffee as it was long overdue. Everytime Liam and I came to a corner we would take a different path, go left, turn right, straight ahead and every time we discovered something amazing. We found Little Collins Street cafe and t...

What a truly amazing day. It started out with a trip to Macy's and some retail therapy. We were trying to decide whether to join the line at Tickets (where you line up at the Seats - if you have been to NY you know where this is - to by cheap theatre tickets) to get some tickets for School of Rock and decided to just order them through the app so we could get going with our sightseeing. Once the tickets had been purchased we headed off for lunch at Carnegie De...

We weren't quite sure what to do in Philly, not well planned at all so we decided to start walking.

It was truly amazing inside, with Van Gogh and Monet displayed together with armour from the early English days to a replica from some of the early English day buildings. Too many things to mention but we just wandered the halls and loo...

Liam and I were up early so decided to get some much needed washing done while Dylan slept (not naming names but now you will have some idea as to why so many late starts in the mornings). Oh and I later found out that half of our washing was left behind - cost me $67 to get it shipped back home. Breakfast was amazing, homemade waffles, omelettes, bacon, eggs, etc etc etc it just went on and on and on. A good country breakfast I reckon. We then went on a bus to...

Another slow start to the day. We are finding the further we go the harder it is to get up and going in the morning. We left our hotel and headed to the airport to collect our hire car. That was interesting. I'd ordered a Jeep Grand Cherokee but when we went to collect it the guy wanted to give us a van. I told him no so he brought a GMC SUV - not what I ordered but he was so arrogant I couldn't be bothered arguing. At least it wasn't a van - bloody hell, l...
