  Hi Explorer1216388 and Sammy x!
  
  Yes we’re doing the tour that starts April 8, so keen! Not too sure on extras yet, I know we’re definitely doing Disneyland, and I’m currently looking at ‘food on foot yours’ which are in NY. Its all a bit overwhelming really! Have you decided on anything?
  
  Where abouts are you both from?

  Hey,
  
  My friend and I are Sydneysiders (hills district).
  
  We are doing Disneyworld in Orlando before we join the tour so wont be doing disneyland.
  
  We are doing the all day heli hike adventure that contiki offer which goes to the Grand Canyon. We are also going to try see ‘O’ cirque du soleil in Vegas. We’ve also booked tickets to see LA Knights (ice hockey) in LA. We are definitely going to book alcatraz for San Fran too. I thinks thats it for now but there will be many more <!--graemlin::)-->
  
  As you can see i’m a little too excited for a trip which is in 4 months haha. I just can’t wait <!--graemlin::)-->

  Hi guys.
  
  We’re from the Central Coast.
  
  Thinking about doing Alcatraz now, and also the cycle tour of Central Park. Seeing cirque du soleil in Vegas would be amazing! I looked into getting Lakers tickets and I cannot believe how expensive they are!
  
  Its weird, after the initial excitement of booking it, I cant seem to get excited about this trip all! Possibly because I havent paid off the whole trip yet (eek). I think at the beginning of 2011 It’ll sink in.
  
  I’ll be 21 and my boyfriend will be 24.
  
  Sammy thats awesome you’re staying in NY and spending more time in LA after, how long will you be in NY for?
  
  Yes I have fb, should we make a Best Of Usa April ’11 group do you think? It would be a good way to get to know everyone.

  Haha I changed my user name but for some reason my posts are still coming up as ‘explorer’ which is super annoying! I’ll add you on fb Sammy!
  
  Its so hard to know with the spending money. Im a shopaholic but for some reason I dont think I’ll be doing tonnes of shopping in the US. Who knows tho, once I get there I could see so many things I want haha.
  
  Im paying off the trip tomorrow, I think its all finally starting to sink in!

  Wow! Youre so lucky going on a cruise and this trip too, I’m barely able to save enough for this one trip lol. It is so hard to know how much money to take. I’m hoping to have $4000-$5000 so that should be plenty!
  
  Have you guys read Rocketgirls travelogue on here? Its amazing, such a detailed outline of what we’ll actually do – made everything seem so much more real!
  
  and yep Sammy, you added me! haha.

  Hi all,
  
  I have also just booked and paid for this trip!!! So excited and waiting for it to sink in.
  
  Will be travelling from Sydney by myself.
  
  Can not wait as I have a close friends wedding in Vegas the time that we are there. Get to experience a real Elvis White Chapple wedding.
  
  Now to start saving for spending money.
