Nearly there!!

16 (and a half) hours til take off..

Right just been into town to get a few little bits ticked off my to - do list.
  • Mini Deodrant. Check
  • Mini Dry Shampoo. Check
  • Mini Notebook. Check
  • The market really is huge for these miniture travel size products, us girls do love to keep fresh and looking GORGE whilst travelling! In Boots there is a seperate section for these minitures.
  • and most importantly DOLLARS!
They look so cool and more importantly, it now means I'm even closer to going!!

I have also manage to pack! 5 outfits, lingerie, hairdryer and straightners, toileteries and make-up. (also xmas prezzies for the family that live in NY)! Which should mean..... plenty of room for the shopping to take back to the UK. This could be dangerous. Oooh so dangerous.


I also managed to check the weather forecast for our stay in the City that never sleeps. It should be dry and crisp. Until Friday! Light snow showers, hope these arn't going to be as heavy as the recent snow flurries in New York! I haaattteee SNOW!


Tataa for now. I now have to recount the hours til TAKE OFF!

i'll write back when I land, :)

Just under 24hrs til take off!!

After christmas, it got a bit hectic at my house leaving me just wanting to get to New York so I could get away from it all. It started with a horrendously bad cough.. then a broken washing machine (which left me travelling back and fourth from laundrettes, ILL) and then finally to top it all off. My area got cut off from water, so I then had to go on the hunt for some bottled water. 3 Days later.. it's back!

So sorry blog, I hope you accept my excuses!! I will get back to you now :)

After christmas I had several New York inspired gifts from my Mum since she knew how excited I was!
A pair of socks patterened with the American Flag and the DKNY, Be Delicious perfume. The perfume has an interesting packaging with words all associated with New York. Manhattan, Broadway, Soho, The Big Apple, Upper East Side, Times Square, Brooklyn Bridge etc etcc! These are all so well documented in the media, so well infact, we all feel we know New York already. Now I want to get personal with this famous city.

Right, as I'm less than 24hours til take-off I better get started on the packing!! eeeeek!

chat later,
