saying that if there's anywhere that i'd want to do the touristy stuff, it would probably be new york.

sounds like you had a blast, it always nice getting to know the 'locals' when you go to somewhere new. even if they do happen to be american 😵
shame you picked a crappy time to go exchange rate wise, how much did the 10 days sting you in the end?
Originally posted by huckleberryhoundSafe trip home Huck. Great to have met you and your wife. Hope you can join in again next year. If memory serves me well I think Plabs said maybe December next year. Did we play a game?😏
On the way home, just waiting to check out and leave the hotel to go home.
It's been a hoot i have to admit. Wish i could do it again without the touristy bit.
Stay classy America.
