Landed in New York yesterday after 27 hours of travel. My family and I were really tired from getting hardly any sleep. The appartment we're staying in is really small and it's expensive. Today was our first full day in New York. When we woke up we went for a walk in Central Park - massive park - so beautiful. We climbed the rocks and played on the playground. We only saw a little of the park and will visit it a lot while we are here. We had breakfast at a diner. They serve pancakes with sausages and eggs - gross. We met Bonnie (director of Broadway Dance Center) for a tour and she helped me choose my dance classes for the week. I'm looking forward to this. Then we spent the day walking the city and exploring Time Square. We went to Madame Tussauds, M&M world, Hershey's chocolate factory and had pizza for lunch. The pizza was bigger then my head! At the M&M factory we got 4 bags of M&M's and a tshirt and it cost $156 - the shirt cost $40 (that's expensive chocolate). Kobey was so tired, he fell asleep at the table of the pizza shop and dribbled all over the table. Not many people who live in NYC have cars, so they walk everywhere. We are doing the same. I'm getting tired.
To night we're going back to Time Square to see the lights.

Glad you all arrived safely and have settled in. Sounds like terrific fun. The expensive sweets and chockies sound awesome and not something you would ever do again.
Xanthe, you look wide eyed and so excited and darling Kobey looks absolutely over-awed by it all.
Poppy and I will be getting ready soon to go to the dinner tonight for the finalists for the awards. Hope you win Xanthe. Well, we have to get ready now, so cheers to you all. Oh by the way Sophie has been gnawing on a HUGE marrow bone all afternoon and is deliriously happy. Byeee. Nanny and Poppy.
