Advantages: Fabulous shopping, bargains, great sights Disadvantages: You will be tired and have foot pain at the end of the trip
Ever since I was a teenager I had always wanted to go to NewYork City. It was probably the influence of TV shows such as Friends and Will & Grace but since then I've always wanted to see what life in the big apple was like.
There's the shopping (my number one priority!), the sights, the shows, the food, the list is endless.
I was nearly 25 when I finally made it over there, as part of a family trip with my mum, dad and sister.
I'd never been on an aeroplane for longer than two hours before, and I'm quite a nervous flyer, but the seven hours on Continental Flight CO21 from Manchester to Newark, New Jersey absolutely flew by (pardon the pun)!
Other friends and colleagues who had travelled to America previously had said about the lines at immigration so as soon as we landed everyone was ready and we walked as fast as we ...

Advantages: delicious cheesecake, very easy to prepare, success every time, short time to prepare Disadvantages: takes ages to cool down, best done night before serving
cook, her cheesecake was always a delight, despite using a lot of ingredients I don?t bother with, nor do I have the time to bake a very intricate cheese cake. I never had the time to follow her recipes and tend to take the easy way out.
Dr. Oetker are a brilliant when it comes to quick and easy to prepare cake mixes, however, the NewYork style cheesecake is not what I call a last minute treat. It does take only a short time to prepare but the baking and cooling down time in the oven and then further cooling in the fridge take up the best part of 6 hours (three hours in the fridge you don?t really need to supervise and time).
NewYork Style baked Cheesecake mix
I?ve been using this cheesecake mix for quite a while now and it always turns out absolutely brilliant. I suggest you don?t prepare it last minute but maybe the day before ...
Advantages: nice people Disadvantages: a lot of prejudices
After I heard about "The Harlem Gospel Singers" (they had some shows on German stages) a friend had the great idea to go to a Harlem Church in NewYork.
Since we don't live too far from NewYork, that means no problem getting there.
Before we went there, we didn't know how to go there.
Should we go by car or by subway ?
On the one hand, people told us not to walk around in Harlem when you are a "white" person and on the other hand people told when you leave the church your car is going to be stolen.
What should we do ?
In the end, we took the subway.
We heard from travel agencies that taking tours in Harlem in a group. That is safer than going independently. That we didn't want to do.
We found the directions to the Gospel Church online.
As we got off the subway, we felt a little bit uncomfortable.
That's because we ...
