My trip started in New York City. I flew out with my good friend Mitch, who stayed with me for a couple of weeks of the trip.

After surviving an average speed of 90mph from JFK to the hotel we dropped our stuff off with the concierge, who happens to be an Aston Villa fan, and go exploring. We walked around Broadway and Times Sq until about 2am, mesmerised by all the lights, and how busy it was. It was like the day time hustle of any big city, but at 2am.
