I am dreaming of New York City... that place just gets into your soul somehow and I was only there for five days but I loved it so much... Fabulous for people watching, fashion and staying out all night, it has a buzz that I can still feel and think about. So different to our beautifully tranquil spot in Brisbane. Here I see green trees and hear birds and can smell clean, fresh air and I love it very much but still I miss the gorgeous buildings, the twang of NY accents, the steam rising from the subway, the traffic cops on every intersection, yelling and directing traffic with arms like windmills spinning around in the air. The shopping. The architecture. The cool cafes and bars. Central Park. Brooklyn Bridge. Brownstones. Walking everywhere. Squirrels and art in parks. Lights at Christmastime. Rugged up against the cold. Snow falling against lowset brick buildings in the Meatpackers district. Recognising places from Sex and the City. Loving seeing another part of the world.
