    Thank You

    January 7, 2012 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

    After a 14 hour flight on a 777 from Virgin Australia we are finally home.

    Some final thoughts about the trip:

    Tracey's favourite city - New York
    David's favourite city - San Francisco
    Ewan's favourite city - Los Angeles
    James' favourite city - New York

    Best things about the USA - the shopping, friendly people, so much to do, the architecture, and just the sheer size of the place
    Worst things about the USA - homelessness, lack of public toilets in New York, unisex toilets

    I definitely think we'll be going back one day. I don't know if we were just lucky with the weather but it was excellent, we had one wet afternoon in New York and a few spots of drizzle. It would have been nice to have a white Christmas but maybe next time.

    All four of us would like to thank Linda for letting us stay in her apartment in New York - really generous and a great spot.

    Lastly thank you to our blog readers. I hope you have enjoyed the daily mutterings and photos. I managed to take over 2,000 photos in just under 4 weeks so anytime you want to view some or all of them just let us know!!
