I went to Philly and New York for a holiday and lovvveeedddd it to bits. So much fun and PLENTY TO EAT! i can tell why a large percentage of the population is overweight especially with the many many choices of food to choose from lucky fockers!

Some of the noticable things:
- Bar hopped in NY getting pretty smashed on a Wednesday night
- Whilst drunk tried getting into a the background of a filming of a show in time square
- managed to get into the electronic billboards many times
- 4 day cruise to canada which was kinda boring but fun none the less
- I got to do a BJJ class in Renzo Gracies gym but unfortunately got caught in two arm bars and a rear naked choke. Not that bad for someone who hasn't trained in 2 years
- Shopping in massive malls as they call them over there
- Watched inception as a cinema there which arent as great as ours. The food courts there are alot smaller then ours as well which is strange.
- Pigged out anytime i could
- Got massive headaches at the crazy rides in the theme park
- Went to a phillys baseball game. SO much energy in the stadium! alota fun to watch
annndddd
- i think i'm in love with American females hahahaha

i tried taking photos of most of the things that interested me but phone either died or there on another camera but here are most of them.

But did you get to Century 21 opposite/behind the main Ground Zero area? Did you notice lots of people with Century 21 shopping bags?

I hope to be there, just for this... and need to arrange a few days' hotel... will likely try to burn some points on a Hilton or an Intercontinental/CP/HI hotel.

How about the Philly cheesesteaks?!?

And pics of you with some lookers?

didn't really get to have a good look around ground zero because there was too much traffic around and didn't notice those sopping bags?

Philly cheesesteaks are the bombbbb! i had them around 3 or more times at the famous joints there

andd a gentlemen don't kiss and tell hahah but all i can say about the women there are DAYMNNN!

looks like you had a mad time mate!!!

did you come back a fat bastard??
definitely had a great time but i'd really like to check out the other states later on.
and YES i did gain a few kilos over there. At one point, i put on 12 pounds or so. Time to get back into my training program

Yere, been to the US a few times on business, they need not worry about terrorism, the local people are killing themselves with their diet.

It's a consumerist culture, not sure how they will cope when it finally dawns on them that their country is dead broke & don't have much to offer the rest of the world.
