Happy Memorial Day 2008

Times Square, NYC

Bug, Craig's Mom, and I went to NYC on Saturday to have tea
at the American Girl Place.
It is also Fleet Week in NYC.
Times Square was amazing.
Bug got to hold an AT4 and a big gun, do chin pull-ups, learn a self-defense move, climb into a tank and get her picture taken with the Men and Women who provide our freedom.
It was one of those feel-good experiences that left me feeling warm and fuzzy and very PROUD and grateful to be an AMERICAN.

A BIG thank you to all of our Military!

We don't have anything like this in th UK, but there is talk of us having an additional public holiday to celebrate the military, but if that comes about most people will just treat it as another day off to do what they want! We of course have Rememberance Sunday to remember those that gave everything for us all.

I hope you all had a great time in NYC. It sounds like a buzz!

I'm jealous you all got to go to the BIG APPLE.
I haven't been there since before 9/11 and am long overdue
for a walk around the city with my camera. There's never a shortage
of things to see and do.
Glad you and 'bug had a good time there!
