The Big Apple (cont....)
Times square at night.... sooo cool. So much to see and do. We arrived at about 8pm Friday night and walked around for hours eatting Tasty Dlite Sundaes (like Choccollo! - we went to the one Charlotte ate in in Sex and the City and the Apprentices worked in in the Apprentice).
A busker had this dog and cat sitting on one of the busiest street corners in times square. They're not on leashes but they don't move. Very cute I reckon they were drugged though. Check out the photos below them of them in their winter coats. Ohhhhhhhh!!
We went and saw Hairspray on Broadway which was spectacular. We lined up for an hour to get 50% off the tickets. Their voices and sets are amazing. And Dan Haylie Duff was meant to be in it but she was promoting her new movie.
Times Square in the day. There are sooo many tourists weaving your way through them is impossible. Imagine 50% of these people holding umbrellas at all different heights?! It was crazy in the rain.
Anyone recognise this building from the movie 'Hitch'? Will Smith met the dude he made over on the stairs of this building. It's some legal building in the financial district. Pretty spectacular!
This is our friend Tim from Melbourne who we met on the Staten Island ferry Sunday morning. We hung out with him all of Sunday.
This is Manhatten island from the back of the Staten Island ferry. Unfortunately the ferry was so packed that we couldn't get that many great photos of the city from far away. Still looks pretty cool though!
The Lady Liberty herself.... We just took a free ferry to Staten Island and back to see Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island from a distance because the line to even set foot on the islands of either, let alone to climb up liberty was ridiculously long.

Hey guys,
Haven't seen the blog for a while so I had a fair bit of reading to catch up on this morning. Looks like you have been pretty damn busy lately. I'm jealous. haha. NYC looks so cool. I can't help but notice the similarities to good old Newcastle tho....hahaha. Not too much exciting been happening here. I think we won a footbal game, that was front page news. lol. Went to NZ last week. Was awesome. Best snow I've ever ridden. No photos tho sorry. Didnt take a camera with me. Anyways I should prob do some work. Hope Sonny 2 looks after you as well as Sonny did.
