Hey guys!

I'm Dana, 23, and I'll be on your trip too (by myself) Razzer I can't wait only 150 sleeps till I fly to NY... I'm leaving NZ on 29/07 and get to NY 30/07 so only a couple of free days in NY before our tour... wanted to see a few sites beforehand tho!

Afterwards I still have just over a month off work so keen to keep travelling around depending on how it all goes...(would love to go to San Fran, Florida, Mexico and Hawaii) hoping I'll meet people with similar interests and we can go from there!

Fun times ahead Big Grin

I'm staying at the Marrakesh in NY for two nights before the tour and Anaheim Best Western for 3 nights afterwards. I've taken from 28/07-29/09 off work so who knows what I'll be doing or where I'll be staying after that!

Yeah hope we all have a fun time, I've heard contiki's are the best! I'm excited for Vegas and all the other "all american" sights we will be seeing!

Hey! =) I'm 22, just graduated, and really excited about the trip. It will, like Helen, also be the last of 3 tours for me. I haven't really had any time to plan, just booked the tours last minute not too long ago (I'm surprised they still have space!) I'll try to check this as far as possible, but feel free to send me a message and I'll text you my US number if you need to keep in contact. Look forward to meeting you guys in NYC!
