Charlie has finished his time working in Tahoe so we have decided to spend the last bit of his time here in the US exploring the other coast. It will be New York and then a train to Boston. I have an interview for vet school in New York so it was a perfect excuse to explore the city. First impressions: it is a beautiful city. Full of life... which is surprising considering how cold it is. Today: up to the top of the Empire State Building (Uncle Bill said it is a must!) and then to Elis Island. I am going to see if I can convince them to let Charlie stay.
