DAYS 4/5/6

Hi All,

Well I havge not had a chance to get to an internet cafe for a few days so it has to be an update of the last few days here for you.

Zoe arrived late Saturday night so we just got a Pizza slice and had an early night. Sunday we decide to walk around Soho which was great for me but not so great for Zoe's bank balance. I am restraining myself unitl the end of the trip.

We found many beautiful stores and also some great cafe's to eat at. Sunday night we had Meican at the place next to the hotel and then went for a walk around Battery Park on the west side and saw these amazing scupltures which i will post photo's of later. There is a story to tell about this but I only have 18 mins left so will leave for later.

Monday we went for an explore around Century 21 (Anthea it is so chaotic that I almost started to panic, but fun none the less) and then headed to the finacial ditrict and also Wall Street.
We then went to the lower end of Battery Park and did the tourist thing of taking phot's of the statue of liberty and such, also a man ws carring a huge python around his neck so yes I had snakemares that night.

We then ate at TGI Fridays and the burgers there are amazing. We then headed back to the hotel to change before dinner with Greg Ancliff (See I found out his name dad) and Simon (cant remember his.) at this little Thai place in the east village. Awesome food.

The headed for a drink before heading to my favourite club in the world Cielo where we danced to amazing music till 4 in the morning.

Tuesday we then headed about 3hrs north of New York (after only 3 hours of sleep and sleeping through our alarm) to a Motley Crue festival called CrueFest with Dave Aussenberg (a music manager and someone wet through Rohan's friends) where we spent all day in VIP access and hanging with Drowing Pool, Somthing Souls of a Deadman or something like that and just became groupies for the day. Motley Crue was hilarious and everyone music youtube the song Girls, Girls, Girls but instead sing squirrels, squirrels, squirrels as the chorus. Lots of fun.

We are now at the Hostel in the lower East Side and have just been to the UN and now I am sitting in the Public Library of NYC (yes where carrie was supposed to marry Big) typing this to you all.

I had better run but I love you all and miss you more. Dad Mum everything is fine now and will try to call you later. The gang BONKERS SQUIRRELS.

Love to all and I will type and upload photo's soon.
