NEW YORK

We left home for New York last Wednesday (12th) and returned home on Wednesday (19th)
We had visited there before in 2004, so this time we knew what we wanted to do.
The 1st thing everybody asks me is "did you see any shows" and the answer is NO!!!
There were 4 of us in my party (the ones we had to pay for) and at 125.00 a person we could not afford to lay down $500.00 for the girls to "see a show". Frankly, I don't see how anybody does... Can somebody tell me that?
What we did do was we bought 7 day passes for each of us, for the subway...Usually the subway is 2.50 per ride (which is what we paid in 2004, or we may have bought day passes, I'm not sure) but anyway, the 7 day pass was a bargin because we rode the subway everywhere. In my minds eye, this guy was taking flowers home to his beloved, or maybe it was to his sick mother... either which way, its sweet to see a guy with flowers!
John and Rudy had subway maps and it was a real adventure lining out where we were going and what trains to take to get there and return on.
I like the subway, it is FUN-N-N. We even went over to Hoboken , New Jersey on the (path) subway under the Hudson river, that cost $2.50 extra for going to a different state, but we didn't mind. We went to the now famous Carlos Bakery, where they film a show on T.L.C. called "Cake Boss".

I ate what they call a "Lobster Tail". It is very thin pastry with lots of layers rolled up to look like a lobster tail with creme cheese inside... Yum-Yum! It was good. ( Pardon my expression, I was upset with RR when he took this picture!) Hoboken, N.J. is a beautiful little spot just across the river, here's a look at New york from there On this lush green lawn, people were sunbathing playing in the sprinklers, and just enjoying the sunshine!

I took this picture of "peaches" in Hoboken, there are plumbs and cherries in the background.
I couldn't resist taking a picture of the beautiful sunflowers


Rudy and John took the girls to Coney Island to eat a world famous "Nathans hot-dog"
they loved that,

but said that the beach was so crowded that you could not possibly enjoy the water...


There are so many majestic things in New york. I had a hard time deciding what to blog about. There were some gross things there too, like the dogs being treated like humans. We even saw one dog with shoes on... We saw sodomite couples hand in hand, hugging. I guess with everything there is bad
I think the thing that bothered me the most was the "First Baptist Church, of Uptown Manhatten...It no longer houses the First baptist Church of Manhatten, now it is home to a small assembly of Korean Baptist's The words etched in stone are as true today as they were the day they were etched...
ROMANS 10:9&10
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

So long New York
