Day 2 in NY - Still no bags

Donuts for breakfast, now sitting in the sun outside the airport hoping that these bloody bags will turn up. Put a call through to the parents, mum was out so broke the news about the bags to dad which was much easier! We are already starting to get into the baseball which always seems to be...
