Pizza under the Brooklyn bridge

Leaving the pizza place
Walking back to the subway.

It was parked in the parking lot by the pizza place.


Joel's Bentley that he likes



Auntie Doris and Carol




Jenny and Mark












Here we are eating pizza under the Brooklyn bridge. It was really good it is Italian pizza that Mark and Jenny found on their trip over. It kind of reminds ya of a restaurant were the Italian mafia would meet. When we first walked in there was a worker sitting at one of te tables counting his money telling us that they would be right with us. :)

New York here we come

Joel at the World Trade Center site
Mark, Jenny and Auntie Doris at the world trade center

um..off the train at the WTC from Newark NJ


Penn Station Newark NJ



Going to the station..




We got to go to New York City on a Monday with Joel's Mom and Dad, and Jenny and Mark and Auntie Doris.





Mark and Jenny live in Ithaca New York (we have lots of pictures of water falls to show later) Mark is going to Cornell University and studying in Physics. Any way they have been to New York City before so they were wonderful guides around the city and the subways.

After we got to NYC we went to Brooklyn to go eat pizza....really good pizza....



Flying out of JFK

Manhatten. the long thing in the middle is Central Park





We got a red eye flight out of Salt Lake airport at 12 and arrived at JFK at 6 in the morning on Sunday the 7th. On the flight in we didn't get to see any thing cause it was foggy and we didn't get the window seats. But the flight out of JFK we saw a lot.









Adventure

It is getting late at night and my living room is full of stuff so what do I do? I ignore it and get on to the computer... ah the joys of procrastination.

Well for those who don't know Joel's sister Janelle got married in New York on the 14th of June at Bolt Castle in Alexander Bay. Very exciting sense me and Joel have never been to New York. So all the stuff in the living room is every ones bags and goodies we got...ugh. I am not sure how we collect so much crap but we do. But thanks to Mike and Janelle we were able to get every thing on the plane. No one talk to Joel about Delta or New York gun laws he might have a heart attack on ya and I would like to keep him around for a while. :)

The girls didn't go with us they got to stay at Grandma Netty's and Grandpa Craig's in Fruitland and got to say good bye to Uncle Ty at the mtc. So it was quite a busy week for every one with a lot of traveling for all.

I will start to put a few pic up tonight but there wont be to many cause poor Joel deleted most of them....yeah it wasn't a good day that day. He erased the pictures and didn't get a watch in New York and got lost at Madison Square Garden. All in all though we survived and have some memories to share.
