New York Vacation

Almost a month since we were in NYC. Time to post some photos.

We had a quick/long drive out, but all went well, except losing the car headlights in IL the first night. Brights worked, but not the regular ones. So drove the remainder of the trip with brights.

The drive was so easy. Got 80 and took it all the way to our relatives' house. Only got lost once we got off - so got to see Newark Sunday night! L drove part of the way. It was very easy to take the train into town. I still remembered the subways and using the swipe cards was easy. We learned you can only swipe a card 4 times/ entry, so we had to have 2 cards. We did a lot of walking and seeing the sights. Things have changed for the better in 30 years. Met my college friend for 1 day and cousin for 2 days.

Here is L, waiting for the train in the NJ station. The train rides were nice.



We're on the Staten Island Ferry.



Times Square - just to prove we actually were in Manhattan
