Round the World Trip - 95 Days 23 Hours and 55 Minutes to go.

New York, New York,
a helluva town.
The Bronx is up,
but the Battery's down.
The people ride
in a hole in the groun'.
New York, New York,
it's a helluva town!”

That’s right this week was all about New York and booking accommodation! Well after creating a google map and pin pointing all the places that we want to visit and see that gave us a really good idea about where we should stay. We then had a look at all the hotels around there that where available at a reasonable price. Now we considered all places that would fit this criterion including hostels. The only thing with the hostels was that they were just as or more expensive than some of the hotels. Well last night we finally booked a place after much discussion and deliberation. So we now only have Las Vegas to book.

We decided to start to look at Vegas stuff as well since we found out that it is NFR (National Finals Rodeo) week in Vegas when we are there so things will book up pretty quickly. We haven’t booked anything yet as hours of looking at this stuff turned our minds numb…….the bundy helped though. Now you may be thinking to yourself that this blog isn’t entirely about New York as he has mentioned Vegas. You would be correct to some extent but I haven’t told you that one of the hotels we are looking into is in fact called …….. wait for it………nearly………NEW YORK, NEW YORK!!!!!

Well we are off to the country this weekend so do know how much stuff will get done, but you never know!!!!

As Frank and the gang sang in that movie “On the Town”
New York, New York, a helluva town.
The Bronx is up, but the Battery's down.
The people ride in a hole in the groun'.
New York, New York, it's a helluva town!”
