I hope you had a great flight Lynda. I am very jealous. ;) I am desperate to go to New York - it's on the top of my "places I want to visit when I have beaten my FOF list"!!!!! :drunken
Hope you have a great time and I look forward to hearing all about it when you are back!

Kelly :D

Two out of three trackers, and the CO website say you have landed!

So welcome home from your quick, fast, and fun weekend!

:) Thanks for tracking me!

I did not ask anyone due to the time differences. I do appreciate it though.

Had a great but short time in New York and I still can't believe I flew all that way for the weekend.
We did only get to see a small part of NY in the time but Hey we can go back! Report to follow
