New York at last... North America » United States » New York » New York » Manhattan

6:30am in the Hollywood Diner, 6th Avenue
Watching the yellow taxis whizz by...

"Hey lady, it's free, don't be shy now" said the dreadlocked Bob-Marley-alike leaning at the top of the 14th Street subway entrance, a newspaper in his outstretched hand. A yellow taxi whizzed past, then an NYPD car. I clutched my paper bag of danish pastries and my cup of strong smelling coffee. It was 6am in NYC and the only thing missing was Al Pacino.

Wilds of Donegal Europe » Ireland » County Donegal » Donegal

Beachcomber, Rathmullan

It took us a while to realise that there are, in fact, no sign posts in the county of Donegal unless of course you are prepared to hack your way through 3 foot of hedge to get at them. Our third accidental detour of the day took us nearly into the Atlantic on one side with only 1 half a mile of lake to swim across to get us to Maura Toomey's wedding starting in approximately 15 minutes on the other side.
