After a horrible nights sleep, because the room (believe it or not) was too hot... I got outta bed early and met one of the guys sharing a room with me... Fernando... and he didn’t really know what to do either so we both went to the history museum, which was pretty cool... we went from there for a walk around Central Park checking out the snow, the ice skating rink and then went inside the Zoo. The zoo was pretty cool, had a couple of polar bears, sea lions and heaps more... after that we went to the Nike store which was really cool! Tonight ill be heading to the basketball to watch the NY Knicks host the Sacramento Kings at Madison Square Garden! Cant wait!! ... read more

On the flight over i was unable to get much sleep, mainly because of the guys sitting next to me needing to go to the batch room every 30 mins and because of the flight attendant wearing too much cologne kept hitting my knee with the trolly! Other than that it was a good flight. Annie was at LAX waiting for me to get off the plane, so we went straight to Vegas! As i'd had a severe lack of sleep over the last 48 hours, as soon as i got to vegas i slept for a few hours then went had dinner and saw the Circue de Soleil show LOVE which was amazing! :) the next day i didnt get outta bed til 12:30ish... so Annie took me to the international house of pancakes (IHOP) ... read more
