Day 218: A new jersey?

It seems a lifetime ago that we flew up here from Newark Airport with a view of the Statue of Liberty and the Manhattan skyline. I suppose it was actually 218 days ago. The question is did you know that on her day off Madame Liberté likes to dance?

One of my colleagues and his family are having an unexpected stop-over in the vicinity of Newark Airport tonight having missed their connecting flight up here. It has brought our mad dash on Day 0 to catch our (fortunately delayed) flight back to us all too clearly. Maybe they will take the opportunity to see the sights tomorrow. It seems that they will most likely have a 24 hour delay before completing their journey late in the evening.

My sister and nieces have safely arrived having decided to have a planned stop-over and then drive up from the Newark area. Apart from a minor toll-issue their US journey seems to have gone well. They have had tales to tell of a nearly-very-nasty road accident on their way to the airport yesterday, but all are OK and we're looking forward to doing some fun things with them over the next week and a half.
