UNP BUS 6 - New York - Tuesday |
Please click on the images below to see information and photos about each of these areas. |
Our group was lucky in so many ways on this trip. Here is one example. After several hours of meetings at the UN, we happened to walk out and see President George W. Bush drive by as he was visiting NY. | ![]() |

I had another celebrity sighting when I returned to our hotel. Out on the sidewalk I saw this woman hailing a cab. I stopped and talked to her and shook her hand, but she would not tell me her name. Later, I "ran into her" as she was entering and I was exiting the hotel elevator. Her name is Sue Wicks and she is the starting forward for the WNBA New York Liberty. They play at Madison Square Garden which is right across the street from our hotel. | ![]() |

John sent me this very neat
picture he took at the World Trade Center, in the Financial District. If anyone has anymore from that afternoon (or any other time, please let me know). I guess I "swallowed my camera" for a few hours!. Thanks John! John has also provided us with a message board (noted on the main page). |

Talent
Show As usual, the kids put on a wonderful Talent Show. It is always amazing to me to see how much talent these kids have. Whether it is singing, dancing, or just making up funny routines. It was a lot of fun. However, us old folks decided to join in the fun, too. We created a song/skit based on "Singing in the rain". Some of them did well, while I hid in the back of the group! But... it was fun! |
