New York... ... finally

In New York for about 6 days or so, will let the pictures tell the story.

At Newark Airport waiting for the bus to city, after an 18 hour flight and an equally long tearful farewell from my kids (I still look good, don't I?)

Exhausted after pulling 3 pieces of lugguage from 42nd street to 34th street, Pen Hotel. Best part was, hotel could not locate our reservation (we nearly had to sleep on the streets) and after they found it, they checked us in to an occupied room! Thankfully the couple weren't doing anything MUCH! So much of hospitality for us!

Awaiting fireworks on 4th July... ... (but we didn't make it in the end......)

The "Bull Run" on Wall Street and finally... ...

Roasted Duck rice that tasted really good in Chinatown.

Been in Ithaca for 3 days, not much time to snap pictures as yet. Weather here is really lovely and I am beginning to like the 25 mins (longer coz' yours truly'e legs aren't that spectacularly long) to school. Pretty small town, got to say goodbye to city life for now. Tried out golf at one of the scenic courses and will be doing winery today... ... tune in for more pictures. Right now it's time to catch up on some sleep time, have not recovered from jet lag.
