10 days and counting...

Today it is officially 10 days until The America Trip!

I'm getting so excited... last night I had a dream about New York and what we would be doing once we got there. In my dream, I had the best time! It was amazing.

Claryse, Haylee & I have decided that we're actually more excited about New York than we are about dancing at Disneyland! Well, maybe when we actually get to Disneyland that will change, but at the moment that's the way it is.

I won't lie, the thing I'm most excited about for NY is the shopping. I hope it lives up to my expectations! (I also hope all my shopping is able to fit in my suitcase for the 22 hour flight back to Sydney!)


Here is a list of things we want to see and do whilst in NY:

- We each have one "thing" that we absolutely must do. Mine is to go see the Harlem Gospel Choir, Claryse's is to see a show on Broadway (we decided on West Side Story) and Haylee's is to see a famous library and bookstore (I forgot the names!)

- We are also definitely going to Liberty Island to see the Statue of Liberty and go on a ferry.

- We're going on a double decker bus "hop on, hop off" tour of downtown NY.

-We're doing the Sex & the City tour which shows all the locations from scenes in the show (like the Magnolia Bakery where Carrie & Miranda ate cupcakes).

- I want to see shops like Saks 5th Avenue, Bloomingdales, Macy's, Bendels, Bergdorfs...

- I am determined to eat a piece of New York Cheesecake.

- We all want to try a bagel, one of those huge pieces of NY pizza and a pretzel.
