Start spreading the
news. A trip so nice we named it twice. The Grays, the
Ruccis...forgetaboutit! |
|
So here are a few pix from our recent trip to NYC
with Julia and Scott's parents and Julia's brother Andy. |
Left to Right-
Elizabeth, Julia, Scott, Harold, Andrew, Joe, and Darlene |
|
|
Our journey began with
an evening boat tour around the island conducted by Scott's college
buddy Dave. |
|
|
Except for the brief gale force
winds, we had a lovely ride as the sun set over Manhattan. |
|
|
|
|
|
The next day we took in
the Intrepid Air and Space museum and the Metropolitan Museum of art
(sorry no museum pix). If you really need to a visual I can
recommend some good art books. |
|
|
These are some of the
amazing sites and wonders we experienced aboard the intrepid, all
un-retouched and with a great sense of reverence. |

You may have noticed
that none of the women are in any of these pictures. Actually, the
guys went to the Intrepid and the ladies went to the Met. Something
about culture and sophistication... |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
That evening we wandered around Time Square. Not
sure why these pix turned out this way, but we may have been
drinking just a little. |
|
|
|
We saw Wicked this night
(which was wicked I must say) and Jersey Boys the next night.
The next day we took a
boat out to Ellis Island and walked around downtown- the World Trade
Center site, the highline park. |
|
On Saturday we wandered around central park, took
a carraige ride, walked through FAO Schwartz and generally milled
around. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And finally on Saturday
night took a bus tour around the city, also as the sun set. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And we all came home to
tell the story. If we could make it there we'll make it anywhere.
Take it away Frankie... |
