So Saturday I headed off into the 'Big Apple'. This was my 2nd time there, but there are always new things to see and do. So for 5 hours I wandered around the city, and ended up going to exactly the same places as I had before. I went to Madison Square Gardens to see if there were any basketball matches going on, but unfortunately there was only a circus. The prospect of sitting with thousands of kids who had obviously over-dosed on Haribo's and fizzy drinks really didn't appeal to me, so I headed down to Battery Park. There were some street dancers there who were absolutely amazing. I'm just sorry I didn't get any pictures.
Later I headed back to 42nd street (Broadway) for dinner. I was hoping to see a show but the tickets are around $125. I did however manage to get tickets to the 'Laugh Factory' on the corner of 42nd and 8th, and saw some really great comedians. The tickets are usually $20 but there was a man on the street corner selling them for $10. If any of you are in New York at any time, then I would highly recommend it.
The rest of the weekend was very quiet.
I just want to say hello to my colleagues in the European offices. It looks like you had a great time and the company 'Blender'. I am really looking forward to hearing all the gossip!

The photo of the Empire State Building is great Debbie, and also the sculpture in Battery Park we didn't take a picture of last time.

Hi Debbie!!
Regards from Poland :))))) nice you have started up a blog :D
when will you be back to R'dam?? I am coming in the beginning of May...
hey, yes you understood it correctly! (well done)
Have to get out of Australia, becuase they will sort out my visa while I'm overseas. It's a lot of hassle and the briding visa-E that I now have seems to be very bad...
We'r more or less refugees now here..
Anyway, I'm sure it will all be sorted out and in the meanwhile I get some travelling to Hong Kong.
Can we have another update on your blog please! (can I have another one!)
Bye!
