New York, New York...

I got back last night, after 5 amazing nights in New York.
Yep, we made it there!! Our flight was cancelled [again], but we managed to get on the next one. You won't believe the relief!

It was raining all day on our first proper day there, but the rest of the week was absolutely gorgeous. We filled the time with the Statue of Liberty, Empire State building, the Museum of Natural History, Central Park, shopping, eating lots of food, and a LOT of walking!!!

Here are a few piccies...




Pretty Tiffany. I adore those little packages - almost too good to open! More on this later...



The Hotel we stayed at.


My colour mood was 'cream'. It said something about being creative, and good at solving problems!



The views on top of the Empire State were amazing.


Of course, I did go into a few bead shops and purchased some lovely gemstones...


Agate


Aquamarine


Apatite


As for Tiffany, I ended up buying this bracelet:


And my boyfriend bought me these earrings [which I'd wanted for ages], as an early birthday pressie:


Overall I loved it, and definitely would go back a third time. But now, it's back to reality - back to work on Tuesday :(

Before I end this post, my folksy shop is back open - feel free to have a spend;I'm pretty broke now!
