Well, we have arrived on the first leg of our trip. We have had a good flight and just checked into our hostel- a bit cramped but we can manage three days. We've already experienced the New York subway, not as scary as we thought, it's just like the tube, but a bit grubbier!
It still hasn't sunk in yet that we won't be getting any home comforts for the next 10 months. Maybe tomorrow morning when we have to wake up with a bunch of strangers and shower in public, it will become a little more real!
Well we must go and explore the big apple. Will keep you posted...
Hi guys! Glad to hear you're there safe and sound and experiencing the true meaning of 'roughing it'!! I thought you'd like to know we had a breakthrough with Bramble. we've decided to put his food out for him in the evening when the dogs are in cos the dogs and other cats were gettin g it before but we'll try and put it out at a regular time so he gets used to us cos he's not too keen at present!! Anyway, he's fine, your post hasn't arrived yet but will let you know as soon as it does - keep having fun! Jane xxx (Ed says hi-and where are the thong pictures?)
