Storming the Big Apple






Stayed with family the first nite in NYC and listened to some amazing stories about my uncle Ricky's time in India. He planned on visiting for two months like me and ended up staying for over a year and spending time in Pakistan and "no man's land (detention)" as well. He's the coolest. When I arrived in Queens Bret had a mission already lined up for us. He has a friend that's in the coast guard and stationed in Manhatten. He and his fellow crew members took us out in they're coast guard boat for a ride all around Manhatten. It was sick, most people could live in NY all their lives and never get an experience like this. Some cool pics of us; maning the guns, Bret driving, our lady of liberty, and the crew. Later that nite we grilled out and then Bret took us to the Comedy Celler and got us in free to see some fairly big name comics including Dave Attel, hilarious. What a host, way to go Bret. Also staying with Allison, his cousin and long time friend of mine, so good to see her. There's a pic in there for you Noah, found it on the side of a building down in Chinatown, you'll know which one it is. Leaving the states tomorrow and it's still sort of surreal. I love you all, you know who you are. I'll keep in touch as best I can and try to keep the blog updated. Untill then, so long. Namaste.
