New York City and my return to BaseCrawl

On Sunday, July 6, Beth and I left Twin Falls, Idaho, and headed for Salt Lake City.  Our flight to New York was the next morning.

 

 

It was time to reunite with the BaseCrawl crew.  We arrived in the “Big Apple” Monday afternoon and found our way to the hotel.  I paid a cab driver $40 to take us across the George Washington Bridge; a trip I later found out was a $1.25 bus ride.  ;-( 

 

The two of us spent Tuesday exploring the city and its attractions prior to the New York Mets game.  Once we had purchased a map, and figured out the subway system, we were able to navigate quite easily.  We saw Central Park, the Ed Sullivan Theatre (Late Show with David Letterman), Times Square and the Empire State Building.

 

 

In Times Square Beth’s photo was taken with “The Naked Cowboy.”  (… He hit on her, but that was expected …) 

 

 

We ate lunch at Planet Hollywood, and I KO’d Rocky, something I’d dreamed about since I was little.  Beth did some shopping, of course. 

 

 

On Wednesday, after the Yankees game, Daren, Troy, Cory, Scott, Beth and I continued to scout the city.  We saw Battery Park, the Statue of Liberty, Wall Street and Ground Zero.  We also returned to Times Square at night, which was quite a sight.
