Well...thats the end of the NY pic's as you can see...

Spent four days and a criminal amount of money there...and so I had to get my arse back home and even by pass Dublin altogether (did see the Airport though). This is me and my brother with son Keelan in the nearest pub to Bristol Airport we could find, (getting our priorities right again obviously)...

A pint of carling and a slap up greasy lunch later and im preparing to come to terms and ease myself into british life once more...

A small tribute pic to my mate Lyndsey. The Pastis Restaurant in New York, where she used to work as a waitress...

Central Park....again! Watched some dudes fixing up the John Lennon Memorial thing on the floor...cant beleive i managed to get this shot as it was rammed and i was getting elbowed and shoved from all directions..

More Central Park pic's...

Central Park from the top of The Rockerfella Centre.

Had to squeeze my camera through a little gap in some netting covering a barrier to get this shot. Its Ground Zero. Still no where near completed, with regards to whatever is gonna go there. It was a little odd watching the construction and looking up trying to capture some idea of what the terrible scene from 9/11 must have felt like... obviously that was pretty difficult, even trying to imagine the incredible size of the Twin Towers above all the other massive buildings was enough food for thought for one day...

Central park on a Sunday full of peeps relaxing and jogging and shouting at naughty kids....and Brooklyn Bridge. Didn't get a chance to see Brooklyn in the end so will have to make it a priority next time..

MR. HOTDOG...

Time Square

Back in New York...had no choice due to previously arranged flights onto Dublin. That's a pic of the fire escape out the window of my hostel...then there's me pissing about, oh and a church...I could go into some church info for you but to be honest...who cares man...

The Everglades were really beautiful, plenty of bird life, croc's and Alligators to keep you entertained. Plus the way the hover craft slides sideways when turning a corner, was pretty cool man...!!

Having said that I did get my hands on one myself...only a little one though. Actually I was a little disappointed as id already held a four footer and this just didn't seem....i don't know..scary enough...

Cant believe how close the park guy got to these little nippers.... But i was safe in the knowledge that while they were munching on Mr. Stupid, i had enough time to leg it...!!!

Got a chance of a ride on a hover craft...very cool man. Unfortunately wasn't able to actually drive the thing myself...dude didn't think it was a good idea..funny that??

and more wildlife at the Seaquarium...thats not a real shark by the way...

More wildlife at the Seaquarium..

Got soaked by these particular splashes...the fish behaved though.

Seaquarium

This was really cool. Never seen a killer whale before so I was pretty exited. The Dolphin show was awesome too and i was so impressed at how well trained they were. Even more impressed by the speed at which Dolphins can actually swim..! The sharks were a bit disappointing though....they didn't even attempt to entertain us...or take a bite out of the keeper...lazy bastards.
