| I stayed in New York at Chelsea International Hostel. From there I took the bus right across the States to Seattle. Just in time for the December '99 WTO fiasco. Riots, rubber bullets and tear gas? Gee, it almost felt like home... At the top is glass art by Dave Chihuly, in Tacoma WA. |

| I spent every day drinking coffee (which was breakfast) at Chelsea's Espresso Bar, which was at 210 Seventh Avenue (at 22nd St). They've moved now, so you'll have to look them up in the directory for the best ever coffee in Manhattan! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
