New York, New York

Hi All.
We have now arrived in New York. The last week in Boston was fun, as we got to see the Aquarium, The Boston Science Museum and Harvard (or Hahvad) as the locals spell it. We also got to go shopping in an "outlet village". Heaven for wannabe Paris Hiltons, depressing for me. Freya loved it however and Chris shrugged his shoulders and got on with it.

Although the Aquarium was smaller than the one in Atlanta, it was far better designed and included a massive tank holding a miniature coral reef. The original intention as far as the Aquarium went was to go whale watching, however we arrived to late to catch the boat, so we went to the Aquarium instead.

The Boston Science Museum however was massive, think INTECH and then quadruple it, and then make it grow up, and you have the science museum. I could happily have spent a couple of days exploring it and going to the various lectures they held. Unfortunately we only had a few hours and only saw a fraction of the exhibits.

Harvard was interesting. The campus was beautiful, and there where some very nice museums, however due to poor planning we failed to find the constiution and Bunker Hill, which we where told where in the area.

Our journey to New York was uneventful, despite the promises of some Bostonians that the Fung Wah bus would either crash, or be attacked by gangsters, and now hear we are in the Big Apple deciding what to do for the next few days before we get home.
See you all soon. Dan
