So...You're coming to Africa for the FIFA World Cup!
b>Here's what to expect when you get off the plane... in the year 2010... Well for one thing, get used to the 'Vuvuzelas'; you're going to be hearing a lot of them. Come to think of it, you might as well get one for yourself. As the old saying goes...'if you can't beat em, you'd better join em'. What is a Vuvuzela anyway?

Hello from New York City (3) - Crossing the Brooklyn Bridge,
What a full day we had yesterday. We had a delightful breakfast in our bed and breakfast at about 8:30 am and shared some nice conversations with a young couple from Sweden and an older couple from Holland, the hostess was participating as well.

Hello from New York City (2) - Exploring Mid-Town Manhattan
Since our plane landed nice and early we had virtually a whole day left to explore yesterday. The weather was pretty nice, quite sunny when we started, although it clouded over a little and was a little on the cool side, it never got much above 15 degrees Celsius. Around noon time we hopped on the Q subway line, which is literally 5 minutes from our bed and breakfast, and we made our way into Manhattan. The subway actually emerges at the Manhattan Bridge and we got a good look at the Brooklyn ...Read more »•
