New Yawk, New Yawk

So, if it isn't obvious yet, my father's travel and photography bug has really caught on with myself and my sisters and if I'm in one state too long then little green people start talking to me and telling me about China and the United Arab Emirates and Peru and every other country I've not been to for which I need to visit before I've expired.

We had plans to visit several countries in Europe at the end of last year, but because of terrorist threats (actually not the threats, really the fact that people shut down tourist attractions!!!! how do you shut down the Eiffel Tower?! - anyway....) we had to cancel that idea. Next was a cruise down the Eastern Seaboard, but life apparently had other ideas for our family.

So! We resorted to a trip to the North East and I dragged Madame Bekki all around the place just after and before another blizzard which kept the temperatures in the low 30's and 20's, but sadly no manly stories of frostbite or missing limbs to make myself feel much more macho and manly and aide in growing my ego to the point of popping (that's what being a man is about, you know :) ) and I only have pictures to tell the story.

Ahem....take that Kait....:p
