We're living in a shoebox

Seriously! The room is 7 feet wide by 9 feet long, add in the bunkbeds, a table, dresser with TV, a chair and coat rack you just turn around. Get me and Krista and our three suitcases in there and your doing the sideways shuffle. I'll try and post a picture to show I am on exaderating. We are hoping to change rooms tomorrow - may have pay a bit more, but that's ok.

The train ride down was very nice - if you have to do long trips trains are the way to go, and not that expensive either. We had a bit of a miss hap getting to the station, completely my fault. I got us off at the Ferrydocks which was one stop too soon. So we waited for the next street car lugged all our bags up the stairs (never do public transit with more then one rolly bag. At least not streetcars or buses). Anywho we got there and so much fun going up the stairs and through the doors. Meet some really nice people who helped us with our bags (one young traveler from the accent I'd say Australian). Once we got on the train and settle away we were find. Krista got her two seats and I set across the ide from her with mine. When we stopped in Niagara Falls, USA the customs came on. Nothing happened with that I'm happy to say, he just asked some questions and then was on to the next person. There was a father/daughter behind me from Egypt that Customs spent a lot of time taking to and asking the same questions over and over. A elderly gentleman from India was also asked a lot of questions, but in the end everything seamed to be fine.
We had various delays (customs being one of them as well has a frait rain had an accendent and we had to wait for the track to be free) so we ended up being over 2 hours laten getting into Penn Station. Luckily we got a cab really easy and were on our way to the Vanderbilt Y. Checking in was another story altogether. There was only one person on because it was after midnight and other people kept walking in to get small things. Also the man infront of me (I left Krista to sit with the bags) was having trouble checking in or with his room. Finally got to me and she was so short and rude. She was very put out that I didn't have Krista's passport and didn't think to have her filled out the waver form. Excuse me, I wasn't told we both had to and someone had to stay with the bags. Anyways it's done we are here and hopfully we will be getting a different room tomorrow. Oh yeah I don't think the sheets or the garbage had been change from the previous patrons so we may be doing laundry tonight.

Later gators, it's The Lion King tonight!

P.S. sorry about the spelling I don't have the time/patience to correct it all.
