New York, New York!

Stopped over in NY for a night in the midst of heavy rain whilst the rest of the Midwest experiencing floods not seen in 100 years.

Fox and CNN giving hourly updates on the situation with Iowa being severely affected.

Went to Times Square to grab something to eat, and met a friendly Jordanian who runs a Gyro stall.
It was still raining when I got back to the hotel, but thankfully the trip back was smooth given the fact it was a Saturday night..

I was rushed for time to take the free ferry ride around Ellis Island, so I decided against it, being quite content to see Lady Liberty from a distance.

Rushed back to EWR for the flight to Michigan, only to discover that it was delayed for a full 2 hours due to the previous flight delays caused by the bad weather..

Oh, well.
