** Before I begin, I know it’s been ages since I’ve updated, and I’m sorry! New York was weeks and weeks ago now, so I really should have written about it earlier. So here we go.. The long awaited New York blog! ** So I arrived in New York, how exciting! I took a taxi to the hostel and was expecting it to be really expensive because the hostel was 60 blocks from the bus terminal. It only came to a little over $10, so that was cool. I asked for a bottom bunk (I was staying for 8 nights, and [View Full Entry]

New York City - the best of the best of the bestEverything claims to be the best in this city...and if you dare to challenge it, it doesn´t matter as they´ll just proclaim they do something else better....at least better than you anyway. We´ve fallen in love with this city over and over and over again. Having received countless recommendations (thank you to everyone for sending them through - you know who you are!) on things to do, sights to see and places to eat, we had to make a tough call based on restricted time as to exactly what we [View Full Entry]

I did Camp America Summer 2008 to see a little bit of the "free' land with its American dream of cheap food and big highways. I was in Camp for two months in Massachusetts, which was cool but a little too rural for me. I like the city life a little too much. i need lights and pollution to really feel human. I stayed for another month to see Washington D.C and New York. Washington D.C. was a little too much like a massive museum of beige and dead people's statues. Nonetheless, it was beautiful and inspiring. Especially when i got [View Full Entry]

Central Park We start the day early. The hostel organizes some great events. Some of the events only cost $10 and others are free. The tour of Central Park is free. Our tour starts at 10 am, but starts a little bit later. Damn. Central Park is big (843 acres)...hmmmm...I think there is going to be a lot of walking here...lol. It turns out that Central Park is a lot smaller than Stanley Park in Vancouver. I always thought it was bigger. Another myth busted...lol. Stanley Park is roughly 400 [View Full Entry]

I crossed the Williamsburg bridge towards the city with a tall can of Budweiser. It's really one of the most beautiful views I've ever seen. Manhattan's majesty is comparable to the vistas at any National Park. I got to the Lower East Side, with the hunger that comes from a few glasses of wine and a 25-minute walk. I found some cheap Puerto Rican cuchifritos. Tasty. I met up with Ben inside of the bar. I couldn't tell if it was so steamy inside because of all the people or if there was a fog machine. There was a fog machine. [View Full Entry]

The Long Walk A new day and a new adventure. I wake up early...well, if you consider 10 am early...lol. The surprising thing is that Mourad is still asleep. Boy, that guy can sleep. Wish I had that problem..lol. Greenwich Village After a quick breakfast, I meet up with Mourad and we head out on another adventure. We've decided to go down to Greenwich Village and not to the Statue of Liberty as the lineup was a nightmare yesterday. Mourad tells me that he wants to walk as he loves walking and hates the subway. I'm up for it as it's [View Full Entry]

And the adventure begins....or is it continues...lol My luggage is not scheduled to arrive until after 11:00 am, so I decided to grab a quick breakfast and go see the Statue of Liberty...yes, yes I know, that's a very tourist thing to do, but I'm a tourist in New York so...lol. Off I go to start my adventures in NYC. I hop the subway from 103 St. to the South Ferry Terminal. That was one long ride. I think it took about 30 - 45 minutes. You need to understand. Unless I'm in a car, I don't usually ride transit for [View Full Entry]

What a start to my trip. My flight out of Vancouver was delayed by one hour. I was afraid I wouldn't make my connecting flight as there was foreign debris on the runway. I can't believe it took the airport cleanup crew one hour to clear it. I was starting to think that the delay was a bad omen for the rest of my trip, but then I thought this could happen on any part of my around the world trip so why worry? Shit happens. I wonder how much shit will happen on this trip...lol. Hopefully I won't step into [View Full Entry]

After all the hassles of Saturday (see previous post), Sunday has turned out to be a hell of a lot better. We visited the Natural History Museum which has got an exhibition on called "Cosmic Collisions". You get shuffled into a theatre where the whole roof is the screen. Robert Redford narrated a storey about how the moon was formed after a meteor hit the earth and the fragments that where displaced merged together to form the moon. Apparently it only look 1 month. They also had a cool exhibition on about marine animals which I had some fun photographing. We [View Full Entry]

Today has been a bad day, but yesterday was a good one, so I'll start with that. We started off with a really nice breakfast at the Brooklyn diner on west 57th street. Followed by a trip up to the roof of the Rockefeller building. I'm not usually one for doing the whole touristy thing but I have to admit that the view from the roof was pretty breathtaking (See the photos). After that we wondered around the Central Library and Grand Central Station. Both buildings where great for just sitting around people watching. Whilst sitting on the steps outside the [View Full Entry]
