So, we subway-ed it over to Brooklyn, and Jon being the Magellen he is, guided us back to his RV. However, we got off about 3 subway stops too early and had to continue our day of walking even more to get to the RV. Which was all good. There is nothing like walking down the streets of Brooklyn. Luckily, they had a couple of fire hydrants spewing out cold water, which I definately took advantage of. We arrive at the RV after about a 30 minute walk, and thank good...

So, even though we were BALLS tired from the previous day's travel, Pookie, Matthew, and I boarded the 8:16am train to Grand Central Station. They were meeting up with a couple that was just at their wedding, and I was meeting this guy in this really cool band that I like - MY BROTHER!!! Pook, Matt and I parted ways at Grand Central Station and Jon and I took on the city. Starting with Times Square, we just walked around and sweated off our body weight. It was s...

Today began early with last minute details for the ceremony this evening, but everything went off without a hitch. It was beautiful.

It was only a four hour drive, and Michelle Don and I got up early to have a 6:30am breakfast with a couple from Michelle's kickball team. So I was able to hit the road super early but there were thunderstorms and the drive was NOT easy. I am talking about rain coming down so hard that even with the wipers on full blast I could not see out of my windsheild. Wh...

Michelle and I embarked on a touristy type of day. We got up early so we could make the hour and a half drive to Niagara Falls and be there by 10-ish. We arrived there about 10:30am and could already tell it was going to be a hot day. We went straight to go on the Maid of the Mist Tour and did not even have to wait in line which was sweet! The boat took us by the New York Falls and the Horshoe Falls (the ones on the 'Canada side') I tried to get some sweet pics, ...
