Hello from the US of A

Kieron and Luke



Hello all...

This is just a brief hello from Luke and me. We arrived in, surprisingly sunny, New York yesterday and have been hard at work ever since...no, seriously. We've met Wall Street bankers and a life coach (see above) and we've spoken to a few Muslim community leaders and other fun things.

They've all got a lot to say on the election and being here you get the feeling that the people are ready for a change - it might be Obama, it might even be McCain if he can work some magic in the next two weeks - but either way a new President means a new way of thinking over here. And a new way of thinking in the US, effects the whole world.

It's been a whirlwind so far; we've drunk pitchers of horrible lager, walked the mean streets of Harlem (which aren't that mean where we're staying, and are really clean and tidy), realised that New Yorkers don't do irony but are really friendly. And most importantly, Luke and I have avoided killing each other. Just.

Here is a little video we made last night, go and have a look at it on the Videos page.

Keep checking back...
