Newport, RI and one last day in NYC

 We left the ship and walked ALL of Newport!  Terry says it was 20 miles but probably more like 6 or 7!  It was a bit drizzly.

 Loved this great rock wall

 We toured 4 mansions.  This was the Breakers....totally ostentatious!!!

 We didn't know what kind of tree this was but we loved them

 Marble House Ballroom

 More walking the next day....almost all of Central Park

 Terry loved this violinist playing Vivaldi

 Max and Libby would have loved all the bubble guys

 Here we are on Poets Walk....did I tell you how much I love Central Park?

 We bought a few jokes and a joke book from the same guy I bought some on Santa Monica Pier in February!!  How weird is that?

 Bathesda Fountain

 My favorite building in NYC

 Our double decker bus got stopped by the Secret Service as they escorted the Pres. of Iran from the Intercontinental Hotel.. It was just like in the movies

 Loved all the taxis waiting for the Sercret Service all clear!

We saw a play on Broadway, Cerano de Bergerac, and then hung out at Times Square at midnight.  We then caught a subway back to Brooklyn to pick up our luggage and then to LaGuardia to spend the night at the airport for our 6am flight!  We had a great trip and loved every minute...well maybe not the flights~!
