Chanel and the Naked Cowboy



Well today i had my last day off in a very very cold NYC. I caught the train early this morning with a smile on my face, which must have stuck out amoungst the commuters (who sit which blank expressions, apparently pondering upon the detail on the chairs infront of them for the two hours ride). Once into the city, i caught a path train to 33rd street and walked around Manhattan Mall (mainly cos i couldnt figure out where the exit was.) I was also treated to the rather the amusing sight of a fellow path train rider, who appeared to be nodding in and out of sleep, getting up with his eyes still closed and exiting the train at his stop, which apparently he had done so many times he no longer needed to see where he was going. I then headed to chinatown and had fun with the hundred of chinese people whispering "Chanel, Prada, Gucci Miss?" as i passed them by in the street. after chinatown i went to times square and managed to catch a glimpse of the infamous 'Naked Cowboy' (pictured) which was high entertainment (keeping in mind that it was -2C in the city today) before i rushed off to catch my bus back to the farm.


Just two days til i leave. tres exciting. xoxo

Well all I have to say about that is that at least the "Naked Cowboy" is somewhat more attractive to look at than the Adelaide equivalent identity of tall, slightly over-weight aborigine dressed in a tight fitting lycra leotard, white wellies and a cowboy hat! excellent work with the camera Dan!
see you on Saturday!
love you lots
