I got to see snow for the first time and ended up in a Blizzard...
My lovely cousin, Vicky lives there and generously put me up. She is awesome!
I spent a lovely Christmas there and then was very excited to go to Asheville, North Carolina for some Swing. Unfortunately, as many of you know, all the flights going in and out of JFK were cancelled due to bad snow.
I was pretty devastated but took things in stride, my cousin took me to see The Nutcracker with the NYC Ballet at the Lincoln Centre. It was pretty amazing.
Here are some photos of my trip so far...

My Swing Dancing partner in crime, Amanda came along from Perth too... Unfortunately, although a day late, she is already swing dancing in Asheville before me. :( I caught some pretty ones of her before she left me... hmmmpph
I thought I would go swing dancing in NYC. I arranged to meet up with Trev and Annaliese who are from Perth and are travelling around the country. Due to the weather, many gigs and events were cancelled... which added to my downer. However, the one night that we managed to go out, it was pretty awesome!
Here are some shots from Swing 46 which is an awesome Swing bar with live Big Band music featuring the George Gee Orchestra.
Ok, off to Asheville now... fingers crossed... xoxo
