Lady Liberty

Today we visited Liberty Island. . . Airport like security and long lines, then a 20 minute boat ride, and we were finally there.  A very surreal experience, I felt a mixture of emotions ranging from disbelief to overwhelming emotion of the statue's symbolism and how it relates to me and my family.  Visiting the lady should be on anyone's "bucket list", we are all immigrants after all.

Comic strip live NYC

Didn't know what to expect from "Comic Strip Live", it is a relatively small place and the chairs are tightly packed.  I was a great show, the comedy was great, my face was hurting by the end of the night.

New York stock exchange

Training class was two blocks away from New York Stock Exchange, during lunch break we walked around to take-in some of the sites.

Above is a picture of Times square, NYC.  I was given the opportunity to attend a training class in NYC, this city does not disappoint.

And it finally rains

It has been 54 days since the last rain - it is sooooo welcomed.
