Well, I arrived in New York JFK and suddenly everyone started talking like a prohibition-era gangster, so I must have got on the right plane. I just stopped in New York for a couple of days, staying with Courtney, a friend of my mum's, and her family.

I spent most of the time exploring the city by foot, admiring shiny skyscrapers, squirrel-filled parks, basketball-dribbling breakdancers and the like, and enjoying the benefits of the current Kingdom/States exchange rate.

On Thursday I trekked through Central Park and managed to walk in a great big circle, à la hunting-of-the-Heffalump, but did find a busking singer-guitarist-harmonicist who would probably rival Bob Dylan in talent. In the evening I saw The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee on Broadway, which you probably have to see to appreciate how funny and well done I thought it was. Another great city which never gets old.
