I am in the USA for a year, on a Fullbright teacher exchange program. I am teaching in an elementary school, and teach 17 of the most adorable 3rd grade children.

The Big Apple!






We spent a weekend in New York, we stayed in a fabulous hotel with great views. We saw all the sites, and just enjoyed taking in the New York buzz. It really does pulse, 24/7.

We got to see Jackie Mason, up until then I had never heard of this Jewish comedian! He was extremely funny...sons of b****** (as he would say!)

I have finally found out why New York is called the Big Apple!! The state of New York use to be very popular for its many orchards: lots of apples. Hence, NYC became the Big Apple!
