Hello! Hopefully this cool little site will let you know what I'm up to and more excitingly let you see photos and little videos I take! Auntie Lin and Anna I apologise in advance for the poor spelling and grammer So first stop off was Viks and I off to NYC to visit Chris. It has rained pretty much all week - but then it appears to rain where ever Viks goes on hols so we've been blaming her! We saw a Yankees baseball game in the Bronx which involved some shouting for A Rod (we got his shirt) and very cool dancing in the seventh inning stretch - where we had to eat crackerjacks (apparently everone knows that!) We also went to Ellis Island and up the empire state building etc. Got Mum a panda bear notebook made of panda poo - hehehe! We also went to the beach house in Ocean City and Viks had a surfing lesson and stood up - i went more for the jumping waves game - entertined me!! We also went wakeboarding which was awesome, both flying round corners and stuff! Next we've headed down to Washington as well where we saw lots of

Accents certainy turned a few heads!
monuments, visited a spy museum and saw panda bears. The spy museum was really fun, got to climb through tunnels and spy on people coming into the museum - the stuff people do when they think no ones watching. I also got very excited by the panda bears - as had never seen one. The two year old cub climbed a tree right in front of us which was very cool! Safe to say I now have my own cuddly panda and socks - i'm ohh so cool! Back in NYC Viks and I went to see Hairspray - very funny new musical on broadway - could not have picked a girlier one if we'd tried!! Think we could have shared the pre dinner steaks though!! We've also spent a couple of hours at trapeze school on a building roof - can both swing by knees and back flip off - oh yeah!! Anyhow hope you like the photos and little trapee videos. xxxx PS Thanks for the leaving presents picked a pedicure which I had today and the show with Viks - feet look lovely and show was great - THANKS!

statue of liberty
I'm feeling a lack of love for the statue of liberty!! Wilson where did you put my awesome pics?!?!Also apologies to all for no beach pictures, we were lame with the camera and forgot about it on the boat when we were wake boarding!!I just made it to Canada with a few minutes to spare on my connecting flight but I was impressed that my bag also made the trip to a different terminal!! The flight was a little scary as there were thunderstorms out of the window - I really wasn't appreciating the lightening flashing away!! Righty this is Nikki's blog not mine so will stop chatting away now!! Off to a bbq on the beach and it's actually sunny!!! see you all soon xxxx
