New York & Vegas

Hi everyone,
We have just spent the most amazing time with our family in New York & we were extremely sad to leave.
We spent Xmas & New years in Long Island & spent most of our time with our family, who were great tour guides.  We loved times square at night, and headed up the Empire State building.  Central Park with & without snow & the buzz around the streets of New York were great, however after the 5 hour wait for the BITCH of statue of Liberty in the freezing cold snow, we kinda thought she was over rated.  The food is absolutely great in America & without exercise, it's creeping up on both of us, but well worth it.  Our family were great, their homes felt like ours & we were extremely sad to leave, we had a ball with our cousins & cant wait for their visit to Australia.
We headed to Vegas with dad & our cousins Marie & Cathryn from NY & lost our bloody money but enjoyed playing the tables anyway.  Vegas is unbelievable, there are casinos everywhere & the  hotels are like massive Chadstone shops with casinos.  We went to the Grand Canyon & YES it snowed again, but clear enough to witness the deepest canyon in the world.  We stayed at the Luxor & missed our flight to LA because we were buying our magnet (bad move) but the bonus was catching up with my cousins for our last goodbye's before boarding the next flight to LA.
  LA is shit so we are glad to be staying in Santa Monica, it's really clean & reminds us of Queensland. Tomorrow the 3 of us are heading to the Hollywood sights & contemplating on spending the day after at Disneyland .
Love you all
Le & Az

Mum: everyone from NY said hi & wants you to visit next year.
Jana: baby Charlotte was gorgeous in her little xmas gear & she's growing so fast.  Keep me updated with those photos.
Clara: You would be in your element.
Dwyers: hows our little LV?
