Holiday in New York

I've just returned from a weeks holiday in New York City, which has been fabulous. I saw many of the sites (Central Park, Empire States Building, SoLib and Ellis Island Ferry trip, MOMA etc etc) of which my fave was probably the Met Museum, which I was v sorry to leave. Beyond the main sites (and goodness there were SO many I didn't get to see), I also played jazz piano at a jam session at the Cleopatra's Needle club, laughed myself silly at a stand up comedy revue, saw Harlem and Brooklyn from an open topped bus tour and saw two musicals (one of which, the fantastic Toxic Avenger was along similar satirical lines as my own Jazzed Tales).

It has been a wonderful time (if expensive - too many awesome bookshops and such a weak will) - really good to get some time away from my life in Blighty. I love New York and can't wait to go back. Am now rather jet lagged..... am hoping to sat the distance and keep awake till this evening, but am now getting on for too many hours without sleep.....
