Christmas in New York

I had always thought that Christmas in New York would mean lots and lots of Christmas decorations, crowded stores and hysterical people.

I was wrong. There's a lot more of Christmas decorations in Sweden, and trying to buy something in a store in Sweden just before Christmas is a nightmare.

The biggest drawback of Christmas in New York is that it's to warm, and I miss the snow that we have in Sweden.

Walking around on Manhattan

The morning started with rain and wind,  but it turned into great weather around noon.

Did some shopping since my luggage still hasn't arrived.  I love this city. It has so many things to offer.

Quiksilver and Levi's is still cheap. Super dry, a Japanese brand that used to be cheap here has gotten a bit expensive compared to prices in UK.

Delayed luggage

It's bound to happen one day. The luggage gets delayed. It's always a bummer when it happens, especially if it's late so all stores are closed.  My credit card pays about 300 usd if the luggage is delayed for more than 6h.
Had to buy some basic stuff at Duane Reade. Will buy some t-shirts and jeans tomorrow. Got to sleep now.
