NC - DC - NY

The traveling so far has been at a very fast pace, and I didn't really get a chance to write anything along the way...no internet. Here is a quick catch up. First, I made stop in NC to leave my truck (my last possession)  behind and to see my new nephew...I can't wait to see what he looks like in a year (or however long this thing lasts for). Next was a train trip to DC to see my family and some of Krista's Friends, did the monument walk, hit some trendy bars (be glad you don't live in DC...the PBR is not as good when it costs $4), hit a guy on a moped...you know, the usual. The pigeons and squirrels in DC are very well fed and look like they should probably get on P90X. Next was New York, and as you have probably been there, I think my experience can be summed up like this: Brrrrr...want some tickets?, want some tickets?, want some tickets?...hand bags?, watches?, hand bags?, watches?, handbags?, watches?...that can be eaten?...it costs WHAT?....ooooh aaahhhh! In two days we managed to see Times Square, Little Italy, China Town, The Brooklyn Bridge, The WTC construction project and monument, Central Park, A Broadway show, A Stand Up show, and a New York Pizza...which I think speaks to how awesome the Metro is...good training for Metros in other languages as well. That's all for now...we are in Madrid, Spain after almost a full 24 hours of travel and I am going to sleep...
