Start Spreading The News....... We're Leaving Today!

All our bags are packed, we're ready to go.......

And so ends our fabulous week in New York, New York.  We've walked all over and now have calves like Jack Sheedy (a Veteren East Perth Football Player with calves like tree trunks).  It's so wonderful to actually see all the places and things that you recognise from books or in the movies.   However, as hard as we looked, we didn't see any movie or TV Personalities...... maybe they don't hang around with the 1.7 million people who hang out in Times Square?

We still have a couple of days left of the tour - one in the air over the Pacific and the other in Hong Kong, but I do like to reflect on our time away and think back over the things that we have learned on our travels.

1. There will be cues, so one must breath in and out and in and out and just know that we will get there in the end.

2. Always keep your humour - always!  Even when the people around you don't get the joke - it's ok to laugh by yourself.

3. When on a tour, time is of the essence and never be the last one on the tour bus!  The heckling just isn't worth it.

4. Don't ever come to me for light packing advice. Way too many items were brought, so much so that not many items could be bought!

5. My love for Meatball Gracy Sliders is still very strong.

6. Whilst it's great to be away and seeing so many wonderful things, it's always a good feeling to be heading for home.
