Pizza, Burger and Soda from NYC !!
Fourth night NYC and sober all the way, I must say this is a massive thing for me, truly amazing 
I have never known a holiday sober and I cry that I have never ever done this before truly sad.
I can only say that being in the zone in a sober and coherent way is a high in itself especially for someone like myself who has relied on alcohell for over 30 years, colours smells people wow ! Getting back to hotel after a nice meal at restaurant and reading falling asleep feeling genuinely tired is a real pleasure, waking at 630am and going for walk up 57th street, its so good I cant explain.
My Mrs and daughter not sure what's come over me ( they never knew the true extent of my problem, as 90% of my drinking was alone late at night) they cannot understand why no wine/beer LoL
Never going to drink again, maybe I am on some kind of pink cloud high but sober holidays are something else !

Last Night tonight Of a great trip , great city , still cannot beleive not one alcoholic drink, yes I can beleive because I have made my plan to never drink again, there is just too much to gain . I have read Allan Carr and rationtal recovery every night, they are kind of go along the same lines and compliment each other.
NYc, one thing and iam not tight, is porobably the most expensive place I have ever been too, London seems dirt cheap compared to this place, not been to states for long time but my oh my how things have changed

I didn't discover Led Zeppelin until I was 35, but instead of thinking 'Damn, I could have been listening to these years ago' I just think 'Bonus, if I'd found these years ago I'd probably have been bored of them by now.'
