New York City

I have had the best time in New York celebrating a dear friend, and the girlfriends who love me like blood.  We saw the sites but there is SO much to see.  Not sure if even native New Yorkers ever see all the sites in their hometown.  It's so vast and ever changing, not sure how you could.

I'm looking forward to coming back again.  Friends and family I didn't get to see this trip.  Next time for sure!  

We saw Times Square, Rockefeller Center (where I fell in the NBC store).  Central Park carriage ride, Halloween parade, Bleeker street live music, shopping in Soho and on Canal street.  Hop on Hop off bus tour of lower Manhattan, rode the subway for the first time and so much more.

Shared many laughs and made memories to last a lifetime.  Now off to Ireland via London and to make even more memories!  

 

14 days. . .In 14 days I will be on a plane flying to Ireland with my niece Trina.  This will be my second trip and her first and we are both extemely excited.  I have been saving and planning for three years, every since my first trip I have been trying to find any way to get myself back to the emerald isle.  Lots and lots to do before we go and the days are slipping by quickly.

We will be going to places I have been before, like Dublin but also new places like Lahinch.  This trip we will be staying a minimum of two nights and maximum of three, so we don't have to rush to see everything in the cities we stay.

Some things I am really looking forward to are going back to the Guinness brewery, going to the Jameson distillery, seeing the Cliffs of Moher, the Giant's Causeway and Belfast.  I am not sure 12 days will be long enough, I am sure I will want to stay longer, I did the first trip.  But then. . .it is Ireland.
