trevor and karen Hello again from a very wet New York. We have had to buy another umbrella as it is so wet! Just been to Century 21 and spent many $s. Went to see Les Mis on Broadways last night it was a very good show but probably not quite as good as the U.K. production. Thought we might have got another message from you - but perhaps you are finding it difficult to get internet access. Hope you are OK anyway. This will be our last message stateside as we head to the U.K. tomorrow. Lets hope it will be drier at home than here. Take care - see you next Monday at Heathrow. Miss you loads - lots of love.

Trevor and Karen Hi - we have left the cruise ship many lbs heavier and certainly PoundsSterling lighter!! had a great time and now looking forward to doing some sightseeing back in New York. Weather has been very variable. Will probably have to buy a sweatshirt in new York as it is quite cool today. Sorry we can't view your photos but will look forward to seeing them on your return. Hope you enjoy Bali and take some time to rest and relax before your return to the U.k. Will post another message before we leave New York.
