Howdy guys. Finally back on line properly. Thought I might give you all a quick update. I will post something up properly in the next day or so once I get some sleep and sort out photobucket.

Anyway, after a flight that lasted somewhere between damn I'm tired and are we there yet (lets call it about 24hrs), 2 monday's and 2 flights, we made it to New York. decided not to sleep so were up for best estimate 34hours, was a bit sleepy at the end of that.

We took ourselves on a walking tour of NYC and boy did we walk. seen everything we could and photographed everything that moved or stayed still. The most moving was a little church about 50m from the ground zero site that survived and became a shrine to the devastation. President George Washington actually worshiped there.

Just drove up to Boston and spent 2 days there. What a beautiful city, clean tidy and so much history and outstanding architecture.

Anyway, back in NYC for 2 days then to Washington DC. Now I have internet, not just off my phone, I'll get the photos organised and posted.

Nev, your mates rest. is quite a way from where we are, so probably won't get there.

Back soon.

Hi ya'll. Yeh, got an American drall......Still having problems with photobucket sorry. Anyway, been to Boston and what a beautiful city enriched in history. Walked the freedom trail around the city and, about a ahundred photos!!!

Now in Washington DC and have walked everywhere. Did about 14klms yesterday and hurting a bit today. Saw some kind of motorcade just before and I will say it was the Prez, but doubt it.

Should have lost heaps of weight but no. Jeezz the yanks eat big meals and heaps of calories in it.

We leave for Miami tomorrow and meet up with the guy bought Lucfer off. There for 2 days then to Orlando and back to Miami and will be off to a muscle car show sometime later in the week.

Will keep you posted as we go and I'll try harder for photos

Good on you mate!

Florida should be great!!

[Smithy007]

Howdy guys, thought I'd check in with y'all. Things are really nice and hot over here in Florida. High 30's and about 70% humidity but still nice. Nifty, per your request, I have some nice photos for you

At the moment, sitting at the pool bar in Orlando on my second bourbon after a day at Universal Studios - wow, what a place, a must see.

I have worked out why photobucket isn't working for me, I have my camera set on ultra high resolution so each photo is 5+mb so just craps itself on upload. Sorry guys, but photos will need to come a bit later when I have time and lost the taste for the bourbon

Anyway back to Miami tomorrow for the final 5 days. Off to a car show in Fort Lauderdale on Fri night that should have about 300 cars there so should be interesting. The old owner on LUCFR is taking us there so should be great. Again, there will be photos I promise - trust me hahaha.

Catch u later guys.

Do the girls in California live up to the reputation that the beach boys made them?

[Smithy007]

Not going to California mate, just sticking to the east coast. But have seen some Latino lovelies
