yea i'm taking about $100-$200 per day.
and then my plastic on top of that :P
haha i always say when i go overseas -- if you want it enough, just buy it. you'r gonna regret it. i've come home from places and gone "dam i really wish i just bought that" but on the other hand i've come home, opened my suitcase and gone "wow, i really bought a lot of junk that i'll never use or need"

haha i guess thats the fun of it isn't it :P

its so exciting now!!!! practically only 2 months!!!!

coolio thanks heaps thats awesome!
lol yeh thats exactly right hey - you're damned if you do and damned if you don't lol!
I can't wait!!! 8 weeks till i'm out of here lol wooooohooooo!! soooo exciting!
will have to work out a way that we can all keep in touch once we get there (before the tour starts) so we can catch up and do some things together before the 14th.

something for new york - wollman skating rink @ central park

http://www.wollmanskatingrink.com/main_wollman.htm

i'm so bummed the $AU is falling so fast - hope it stabilises again before we head off =/

good idea tahlia. maybe we can keep posting on this forum until we get cell numbers over there. and there's always FB =P

omg maria i know what you mean! it was at 68 US cents last night!!! i'm just like thats not fair!!!!

Hi Maria,
i was just looking at the website you posted
about the ice skating would you happen to know when it closes? im going to new york in May and was wondering if the rink would still be open?
i had a look but it didnt really give me much info.
Thanks

that skating rink looks amazing Maria - i can't wait to go there yay its going to be fantastic!
i know how bad is the dollar at the moment i hope it picks up again..even just a little bit!
thats true between the forum and facebook i'm sure we'll all get in touch with each other

Hi Lana,

Sorry i have no idea - they don't give out much info hey?

I suppose I can always ask when we arrive in Dec =D

Hope it stays open for you - looks like so much fun! but it IS the last month of spring with summer starting in June (average NY temps being 30-40C in the summer i think) - not sure if they can keep it cold enough for the ice to remain solid!

i take it doing best of USA early next year? all this waiting... it's torture!!

don't worry, all this waiting is going to be soooooooooooo worth it in 2 MONTHS!!!

are u guys fans of Gordon Ramsay?

Was thinking of booking a table at his London restaurant in NYC =D

bookings open 2 months in advance, and since we're there at the end of Dec, i'll make the booking in a few weeks... lol

hmmm,,, just wondering if kathryn who started this thread is still coming? haven't heard from her in a while...

Hey,
My girlfriend Lauren and myself are also doing this tour. we booked in january but have only recently learned about this site lol, we were worried there wasnt going to be many ppl but it looks like its full.

Hi Explorer1115121!

Hey guys I just found this pass that pre-purchases admission into certain attractions (like Rockerfeller NY, universal studios, knotts berry etc)

www.gocardusa.com

there's one for LA, Hollywood, SF, Vegas and NY.

I think i'll be getting one for LA, NY and Vegas.

Vegas looks really good because you can access this VIP pass for over 20 bars in vegas. Perfect...

They're on sale at the moment... Hope this helps!

Maria,
Thank you sooo much for that Go Card information - it's fantastic! i'm definately going to get one of these for when i'm in LA
thanks heaps

hey everyone!!
Tahlia and I are going to Knott's Berry Farm on the 10th of December.
If anyone wants to join us for INSANE rides, your welcome to come!

Our tour is full!
