back in the USA

howdy!

i am back... but not in new york this time... on this trip i'm over in park city, utah for the sundance film festival. i'm volunteering for all 10 days, 16-26 january - but after that i will be going to new york for about 4 days - how could i possibly come to america and not spend a bit of time in my second home?

so, i should just apologise for the crappy blogging on my last trip in 2012 - i got really sick and stopped posting up on the blog as i had pneumonia (but didn't know it)! i don't even remember getting home - so forgive me - i will try not to get sick on this trip!

i left home yesterday morning at around 8.30am for a 12.50 flight - i then had an 8.5 hour flight, followed by a 3 hour layover in new york, then another 4.5 hour flight to salt lake city... that's about 20 hours of travelling - i was a total zombie when i got to my hotel!

when i woke up this morning there were snow-covered mountains all around me! i was going to go into salt lake city but when i got back to the airport i found that there was nowhere to leave my suitcase, so i changed my plan and came straight up to park city. beautiful drive up through the mountains, but only about half an hour away from salt lake city. i found the apartment complex and managed to get in to the apartment but couldn't lock the door, so i was stuck in the apartment until some of the others came back, which meant i could go out to the supermarket and get some milk so i could finally have a cup of tea!!!

the apartment is huge, a bit 70s stylee (everything is brown) but it's really cosy and my room is vast!

tomorrow i'm going to have a proper look around park city... more news then!
