Kick off with sauage, egg, hashbrown and most importantly HOT chocolate. The temperature in NYC is between 14-16 C (8am NYC timing). oh my god.. trust me you can't hold for long even in your well covered gear. Wondered around on the Eighth Ave near New Yorker Hotel.

Soon back to the ballroom for interexchange briefing, my eyes soon wondered up the ceiling and it was all I could see. Went across the street to "staples" a gigantic stationary store to have our documents photocopied.
