- 2:51Speaker 1: out for that on social media next week, Dear journal.
- 2:54Speaker 1: This week, I've learned to listen about preconceived ideas I've
- 2:58Speaker 1: been wanting to come to New York for a very
- 2:59Speaker 1: long time. It's a theater lover's dream to watch a
- 3:02Speaker 1: show on Broadway. Not to mention the shopping, the iconic landmarks,
- 3:05Speaker 1: and what we've seen in the movies. But just like
- 3:08Speaker 1: the lyrics from Alicia Key's famous song, I thought New
- 3:11Speaker 1: York was simply a concrete jungle where dreams are made of.
- 3:14Speaker 1: But it's so much more than that. And I had
- 3:16Speaker 1: no idea, to be honest, I didn't realize New York
- 3:18Speaker 1: had so much space, so many gorgeous, quaint villages, not
- 3:22Speaker 1: unlike something that you might see in Europe. I never
- 3:24Speaker 1: in a million years thought I'd be likening lots of
- 3:27Speaker 1: the state to Arrowtown in New Zealand. Yes, New York
- 3:30Speaker 1: City was everything I dreamed.
- 3:32Speaker 2: It would be.
- 3:32Speaker 1: But I'll leave the US most excited to tell people
- 3:35Speaker 1: about Dutchess County and the Fingerlakes, the beauty that as Key,
- 3:39Speaker 1: we don't necessarily expect or maybe haven't bothered to discover.
- 3:43Speaker 1: That's where the hidden gems have been, And now that
- 3:45Speaker 1: I've seen them, I'm so excited to get back to
- 3:47Speaker 1: Altor and spread the word.
- 3:49Speaker 2: I love it, thank you.
- 3:51Speaker 4: It's just never from our journals. Hope you've had a
- 3:53Speaker 4: really nice weekend. Either way, you're weaken your long weekend
