Day 8: Staycation #1

Tonight's blog is going to be really short. 

Vlog Day 7

  

 

  

 

 

Day 7: Separate Ways

Today was a good day for Char and I; we decided to spend the day pottering around doing our own stuff. 

Char went to the city (while it was pouring-- she's a trooper).

I stayed at home-- did some grocery shopping, made dinner, then baked cookies. Oh and I read, and napped. It was a splendid day. I need more of these days.

School bus!!!! (Shorter than I imagined)

mmmmmmmmmmm fun!

Too pasty, Lauren??

Deck the Halls

We left at 8:30, bus picked us up on time at 9:30am. It was super toasty and comfy in the bus, so Char and I fell asleep 5 times with little micro-naps. Not good.

We were searching for just under 2hrs the place where we redeem our NYC Explorer Passes. Bloody 266 West 44t St. Long story short; the place didn't exist. It was actually 226, but that place shut down years ago. Thank you Broadway souvenir guy!! I shall return to repay you for telling us this! We walked up and down 4 blocks, which was ridiculous (they were the long blocks).

Vlog Day 3

 

Day 3: Black Friday

Greetings, fellow friends and fam,

It's 12 am, and I'm struggling to keep my eyes open. Why?

Because today was Black Friday.

Vlog Day 2

 

Day 2: Happy Thanksgiving!

Good evening, my friends!

Last night's sleep was a bit of a struggle... We aimed to sleep at 11pm but in reality, lights were out at 1:30am. I was busy editing the blog post and making an itinerary for Kerri to see. I didn't sleep a wink until 5:30am. 

I would like to wear this all day, everyday, like those crazy old people

I was delirious by this point... 

At 3:30am, Char and I both gave up and decided to listen to some hilarious guided meditation music. After an hour we concluded that all it did was make us giggle, so I played some classical music. Almost immediately, Char fell asleep, damnit. I was alone, awake, trying to resist reading and texting people from home (I failed the latter). 

Funniest meditation I have ever listened to

Vlog Day 1

Day 1: Greetings, from the Big Apple!

Hello!!!

WHAT a trip it has been, just to get here.

This is my lockscreen, in case I lose my phone. 

Funky shuttle bus driver-- I had some really weird people in the bus ride. They were drunk and were going to Bali and said "awww sh•t I hope they don't stop me!! I'm packing all the weed man ahhaahahahahha" and complimented the driver by saying he's a "sick, mad, c•nt"... Charming...

If you hadn't already heard, it's been a struggle. At check-in for Sydney, our tickets weren't being recognised. After some panicking from us and the QANTAS staff, we found out our travel agent(or in their defence; the flight company) had informed us it was a direct flight from Sydney to JFK (with a stop over to LAX, which we didn't have to get off for). It was the reason we chose the tickets in the first place. However, the check-in lady said that this was "really wrong" (with several tsk's in between), and that our ticket is only valid to LAX.
