word order

Hi!

I've got a question concerning the word order in sentences like "I was in New York with my sister". Is "I was with my sister in New York" possible as well? It sounds wrong to me, but I'm not sure. Is there a rule?

Thanks!

Both are possible. The first emphasizes the fact that you're in New York, and the second emphasizes the fact that you're with your sister.

I agree with Guest.
