new york state of mind

---

It wasn't at the top of the empire state building. It wasn't at the state of liberty. It wasn't even at the diner with the huge burger that outweighed my head. NO...The first time we felt like proper americans was in the jam packed, sweltering yankees stadium. As soon as we heard the shouts "HOT DOGS, GET YOUR HOT DOGS" it hit us... We had arrived in the US of A. I always thought baseball was a bit of a stupid game. Mostly because I don't normally have the foggiest whats going on at the obscure hour of day channel five choose to show it. This blog will be edited later...

world on her shoulders
"hey you guys" said an old wise new yorker. "you know what would be great for a photey...get her to hold her hand up so it looks like shes holding that." we did it more out of fear than anything.

NY State of Mind
NYC its got that buzz! Its true about the baseball, it's all about the food. And I love that you have explored some of the bars, one regret of going there with 7 months still to run on our trip- no green stuff! I'll see if I can divert some of the b2b fanbase your way, i love reading yours. From, now retired, member of Bristol2Bombay. Jona
