Just popping in
Just popping in to say "hi". I have been around but I'm quite busy at the moment as we're going on holiday on Saturday. I was all set to book a nice peaceful holiday on Guernsey (and looking at the weather that would have been a very bad idea) but J decided he wanted to go somewhere different, so we are.
We're off to New York on Saturday. About the only thing that has in common with Guernsey is lots of water and being near Jersey! I have been before, but years and years ago and J has never been to the U.S. at all so we're very excited. Any and all suggestions as to what to do in New York gratefully received as there seems to be more to do than I can fully take in!
The only downside to all this is that I'm absolutely terrified about the flight. I'm not great at flying at the best of times and the last time I flew long distance was back from New Zealand when I had food poisoning. As experiences go that wasn't a pleasant one so any suggestions as to how to cure myself of my long-distance flight terror would also be gratefully received. The irony is that the first time I ever flew was to New York on my own to stay with my uncle and aunt who I had never met - now that really was scary!
