NEW YORK, USA
Weather: Overcast and raining but warm.
Today, after an early departure (7:30am) from Boston, we headed off towards New York city.
After an early lunch stop, we arrived in Newport, Rhode Island where we had a bus tour of the town and some of the mansions. What awesome houses!
Then, it was time to say goodbye to Brian and Anne who were leaving us there at Newport. We even dropped them off at the street where their hotel was.
The rest headed off to New York where, on our way to our drop off at JFK Airport, we were stuck in peak hour traffic for an hour!
I hadn't realised that JFK was so huge. We dropped about 5 people at the Delta Airlines terminal (Lee and Renzo where among these), then drove over to the United Airlines terminal and dropped off two more couples - both from the USA - on the other side of the airport, then headed off for our final drop off point at JetBlue where the final USA couple were dropped off. It only left a small group of us on the bus.
We finally arrived at the hotel at 5:30pm. Not all of us were staying here so those who weren't, had to take a taxi to their final destinations.
I quickly checked in, went to my room and dropped off my luggage and headed out again for a walk down the street and to the pharmacy two blocks away for some cold and flu tablets.
I went back to my room, ordered room service, and just relaxed.
Tomorrow, it's home time!! Yay!! I soooo miss my bed and my pillow and knowing where the hell I am when I wake up!
Not looking forward to the long flight though....or going back to work.
