It's not who you want to spend Friday night with that matters, it's who you want to spend all day Saturday with, every Saturday for the rest of your life!

This time yesterday I was waiting for Vicky to pick me up to take us to the airport, this morning we are sat watching an American advert for kettle works because Vicky thinks they may work. The time in between these two times have been great.

Check in and the flight was excellent, I watched three films on the plane to keep me entertained between meals, recommend 'friends with benefits' with Justin Timberlake good film.

It took a while to get to hotel from airport as traffic was bad, it's the first day of the holiday season apparently so it's expected to get worse.

Our rooms fab two queen sized beds and two bathrooms which is a bonus with 3 females! After settling in we went for a walk around and to more food.

It's quite bizarre walking past streets you've seen on the tv so many times and recognising names. We ended up at Times square which in the daylight I have to say didn't blow me away whether it will at night remains to be seen.

Out first meal in New York was at Tony's and wow it was good, we started with Bellini's, the for our meal we had the most amazing chicken dish cooked with lemon and sage served with sausage, peppers and onions - huge dish enough for three and we ha a plate of spaghetti and meatballs which were the size of tennis balls and delicious. The waiter was great, very attentive and friendly until we paid the bill and tipped him well then he gave us a huge smile and disappeared never to be seen again. We did get our leftover chicken to take away so we could give it to an homeless bloke on the way back to hotel.

Once we got back to the room about six it was only hour before we were all asleep within 30 minutes.

It's now 5.30, I've been up over an hour, slept great till one then had interupted snoozing since. Went to get coffee from the Starbucks but its not open - what happened to the city that never sleeps!

So today our adventure really begins. We are being met at 10am by a New York Apple Greeter who's going to give us a tour - yay roll on.
