Newark, New Jersey

Well I haven't Blogged in a while as I thought I would bundle New Jersey and New York in together, but now realise what a big mistake that would have been on so many levels. So where have we been since I lasts posted?

We had our first really long train run which lasted 3 days and really wasn't as bad as it sounds or even could have been. A lot of sleeping took place and you kind off lost track of days and time. We also saw a lot of changing scenery and weather and Willow was a little excited hoping we would get some real snow. Her luck was in when we arrived at Newark, New Jersey and there was a good layer of snow around. Enough to make a small snow man and snow angels and for her to realise that snow does actually make you cold. There was also lots of very big fences and police patrols as we were parked right next to the prison. Close enough to actually watch the inmates exercise if you so desired, I didn't.



Newark actually felt like a city, not a particularly nice city but a city all the same. So many places we go are so spread out you don't feel this at all so that was a nice change.
