In the heart of New York - Times Square !!!
I have never experienced such an incredible city as New York... you know some people say that they believe NY is the best city in the world, and now that I have been there, I can see why! It's buzzing all the time, it's large, it's over-the-top crazy and it's a tourist hub like no other...
Dubai can forget about ever even trying to compete with NY!!
Our layover was for 31 hours and our hotel was the Sheraton which is located 2 min from Time Square and 5 min from Central Park.
What stood out the most for me about NY was all the yellow cabs - the colour is so much more vibrant in real life and they are all over the place. I can't imagine that it's difficult to catch a taxi in this city :P
The flight to JFK Int. Airport was long that I must tell you - but it was worth it for me. I didn't do any shopping because I am trying to save for my wedding but you don't need to really spend money when you want to do sight-seeing :) Best part is I have NY again at the end of June, looking forward!
My vacation in SA was wonderful, I really didn't want to go back to Dubai and the worst was when I walked into my flat and it was all quiet etc - I broke down in tears and just had to call my fiancé and hear his voice... It gets tough living in different countries and all I want to do is be back home with my family but I have to finish what I came to do - and that is to see the world and make money (still a dream for most other people) and in the end it will be all worth it :)
On another note, Emirates was named the "world's best airline" for 2013!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so yes, I am truly blessed, working for the best in the world.....
