NY- Wall Street


Sunday afternoon found us in a Pentacostal church that my friend Julia and her fiancee Bob attend. It was truly an experience and after 3 hrs with no end in sight, we decided to quietly slip out and head to the city's financial headquarters.

Bob was a great tour guide! Not only had he worked in that area for a number of years, but he knew all kinds of little side streets and small sights that we would have never discovered had we been on our own. On the way we stopped by George Washington's church where I actually saw a priest rap and hip-hop! It was quite a show and the church was packed to say the least.

Marco was thrilled to not only see the NY Stock Exchange, but also to actually see The Bull. Made of brass, what it lacked in luster in the front, shone like a beacon from behind. From watching various other tourists, the back end of him was more picture worthy!
