I'm Osama bin Laden, you're beautiful, can I have you're number?
I don't know what I'm going to do with this blog without the guys that hit on Emma. The ones that hit on me just seem to stand innapropriately close or stare for a really long time. She gets ALL the interesting ones, this gem happened on Saturday night and he didn't go away until he'd completed his conspiracy rant.
I've finally completed my US of A grand tour. I've been to Vancouver, Seattle, Portland, Madras, Bend, Denver, Reno(briefly),Chicago, Washington DC, Schenectedy and New York and I've Amtrakked(?)through roughly 15 US states. I have to thank the entire Richards family and Jen for having me and I have to curse the food, especially the cupcakes for giving me a "pot". Luckily I caught something on the way to London and haven't been able to eat properly for two days, hurrah!
And now a dot point write-up of my time in New York.
BAD
Jazz on the Park Hostel rooms
American caesar salads
Coney Island in the daytime/the Atlantic
Staten Island
GOOD
Pizza
Cupcakes/Dylan's Candy Shop/Chocolate Factory
Diners-All over America, i love them.
New York Sex Museum
Pizza
Central Park (Ben Harper in particular)
Rooftop films that are played inside
Disney films made into musicals
New York bowling alleys
Pizza
Harlem
The Staten Island ferry
The lower east and west sides (and the fact that i now understand what that means)
Pizza
And much, much more. But i'm a little dizzy and it's time for bed.
So to sum up. Awesome country, lots of good food and way too many people who thought I was British.

Liz what was bad about Staten Isalnd and Caesar salads? Glad to hear you are not so dizzy now but what were you doing up posting a note on your blog at 7.26am that doesn't sound like the actions of a well person.
Love Mum
