With less than a week until we board the plane and fly off for an exciting adventure in the Big Apple, I can hardly believe it's actually going to happen. I've been to New York twice, once in November of 2004 and then again in November of 2005. Both trips were for three days on a tight budget, with group of friends. In 2004 we slept on a friend's dorm room floor at NYU and the second trip we stayed at a youth hostel called Jazz on The Park. I can't believe that this time we get to go for three weeks and sleep in real beds!
New York is so overwhelming. There are so many people and there is so much to do and see. I'm especially looking forward to our days in the museums and seeing Wicked. I think we are all going to learn a lot while in New York. We'll learn about art of course but I think we'll also experience a culture in our own country that is so very different from our own. I can't wait!
