Wednesday 11th September 2002 - The Return

Some final thoughts…
There had been things that could have gone better and things could have been so much worse too.
I had a wonderful time. It wasn’t a standard tourist package holiday so I got to experience the real America. From talking to others who have ventured Stateside, you can tell the ones who took the package holiday and the ones who did their own thing.
America is an amazing country and everyone should experience it once in their lives. They do say that visiting New York City irreversibly changes you. I can vouch for that, it does. I can’t wait to go back.
My thanks go out to Steve “Fish” Brookes for taking me along, Gash for not letting me die in Asbury Park, and Chig and Ush for absolutely nothing. I cannot thank you enough.

- We didn’t make our fortunes, but we didn’t get mugged.
- We didn’t experience 15 minutes of fame, but we weren’t ignored.
- We didn’t find the American dream, but we do know what it is.
