Thursday 22 January 2009

I was sooooooo excited today as I was going for my 1st flight … and it’s to New York – WOW!!!! After spending time at Hardwick & Earls Colne I was amazed at how BIG Heathrow was … and how HUGE the aircraft was!! Good job I had my ‘minders’ with me to stop me getting lost LOL!

Flight was really empty – so lots of room to spread out and get comfortable for all the passengers and seeing as I was such a ‘special bear’ I had photo taken with pilots – such a tough life for a little girlie bear … hope my fur was looking it’s best!!

We had a good flight to New York (but the pilots didn’t want me having a go with the controls & I can’t understand why??!!) and after saying goodbye to my new pilot friends we headed off to the Warwick Hotel, Avenue of the Americas (central Manhattan). We were staying on 17th Floor, just a couple of floors below where the actor Cary Grant lived for 12 years – wow the excitement is too much – think I need a lie down!!
