Three things I have learnt since my arrival in NYC.
1: As hard as I try, my body will not veer to the right. Sorry to the pedestrians of the US. I will run into you.
2: A city is a city is a city.
3: Squirrels are the cutest fucking animals ever. Yeah we got joeys and possums and I'm quite partial to the platypus but Squirrels are ridiculously adorable. I may try to smuggle some into my pack.
Have yet to do the truly touristy stuff as it is cold and miserable and raining. I'm not whinging, just being practical about how much will be visible from the Empire State Building's observation deck and how disgustingly cold the Staten Island ferry will be.
I did go to the State Library and have subsequently fallen in love with the architecture of this city. Mmmm Art Deco-y goodness.
Tonight there is to be a hostel sanctioned pub crawl. By that I mean, a massive black man named Berkley is taking us all for cheap drinkies. How can I say no.
