Dave and Robyn were on their own the morning after they arrived. They
were up at four something Colorado time to head to the Statue of Liberty.

|
The four
of us loaded on the redbird to explore together on Friday. |
|
|
|
Central
park is a great place to start walking
|
|
We covered
a New York Marathon worth of miles by foot, and Robyn had the blisters to
prove it. |
| We were
lucky enough to get a table for the Friday afternoon jazz at the Guggenheim
museum after our tour. |
|
We hit
happy hour at Mc Sorley's Ale house, the oldest bar in Manhattan
|
|
|
|
Grand Central station where we were plotting a course of action for
the rest of the day.
|
|
Sue and
Robyn were great sports for Ray and Dave going shutterhappy. |
| They could
have passed for native Manhattanites until Dave got his camera out.
|
|
Dave was
looking for a new watch while Robyn checked out their sunglasses selection.
It still amazes us that you can get an authentic Rolex for five bucks
|
|
|
|
This one will have to go in Peanut's baby album.
|
|
The carriage
ride around Central park is something that Sue and I had always wanted to
do. When Dave and Robyn found out they made us wait at the curb.
|
| Just kidding.
They let us tag along. |
|
Real
straphangers! You can only get away with this at three o'clock in the
morning. |

Mr.
peanut welcomes Peanut to Times square.

Sue and
Ray at Times square. |
| We had
a great day to hit the top of the Empire State building. It was grey enough
that no one else was headed up, but it turned out that the visibility was
about 20 miles. |
|
Dave got
a couple of great movies that you'll be able to see on their website when
we get the address. |
|
|
|
This is not the Empire State building.
|
|
It's the
Chrysler building as viewed from the top of the Empire State building.

|
The Detrius
of the week. We had a great time. See you again soon! |
