You lot?

Beautiful, out of the way beach that I stayed on, with never any more than about four people on it.

Very basic beach/jungle huts

At the local temple just after sunrise (if I'd got my arse out of bed twenty minutes earlier I could've got a better photo :x )

I recently visited New York for the first time for 10 days and had a great time but was exhausted by all the people there.
The Museum of Modern Art left me speechless and utterly in love. So much brilliant work there that I didn't even get through the entire museum before it closed. I was pretty bummed about that. I also visited the American Museum of Natural History and watched a presentation on Dark Matter inside the Hayden Planetarium (narrated by Neil DeGrasse Tyson) which was wonderful and way too short.

Anyway here are some shots of me gettin weird in NYC (at the MoMA then on the Brooklyn Bridge). Typically when I travel I get a little too caught up to find lots of time to take photos.

New York is definitely high up there on my list to go see. I do love cities but I know what you mean by the exhaustion; London life is particularly incessant and close knit, which can really wind you up at times. I think if I could have the excitement of a city and the serenity of non urban spaces in a good vicinity of one another that'd be perfect.

Scottish people in Dubai?!? Don't do it man!! Here a photo from the last time it was attempted.
Admittedly they only got as far as the Bay of Biscay before being forced back by the moderate heat, complaining of the 'yellow orb' and muttering something about it 'getting back for giro day'.

The gentleman on the left spent roughly 12 seconds in full sun before being rushed back inside with third degree burns and radiation sickness.

The gentleman on the right managed a full 35 seconds, although later admitted to 'not being ginger' and slipping a little axle grease on before donning his bathing suit.
