New York, New York!

A quick question . . . is it "Up to you New York, New York" or is it "New York, New York, it's a wonderful town"?

For me, it's the city that doesn't sleep.

I just got home about about a week ago from a trip to New York and Toronto. It was a blast. New York is a crazy town . . . it was full of bustle and it nearly seems like everyone there's wired up just little bit more tightly than everywhere else in the world. Slightly overwhelming. Toronto on the other hand, was much more fitting to our Australian sensibilities. Everyone was nice and pretty chilled out . . . it could also have been the amount of pot they smoke over there . . . every second street corner had a random person puffing on a doobie :P

Here's the obligatory photo of Times Square:

Toronto had awesome shopping . . . a lot of rare and random little bits and pieces. I drooled over this particular shop:

We checked out Niagara Falls also. I'd show you a photo of that but well . . . you could just google for something taken by a far better photographer than me. Instead, I give you a glimpse of the best poker machine ever made:
