Although DC is an important metropolitan area, it’s not a real city like New York. Plus there’s no good Chinese restaurants in DC, so we had to go all the way to NY to have some Dim Sum. We checked a show on Broadway and watched one of the last games to be played in Yankee Stadium. The Yankees won in typical fashion with Rivera closing it out in the ninth. It was interesting being on the other side and hearing New Yorkers yapping it up. We also ventured into Brooklyn for the first time, and it may be the last year to visit Coney Island before it becomes another Six Flags. Only a 4 hour bus ride away, NY is the place to go when we miss city life. See some photos here.

Today we visited Iraq, Venezuela, Madagascar, India, Angola, Mexico, Paraguay, and Colombia. Several of the DC embassies opened their doors for visitors to experience their culture, art, cuisine, music, and history. We don’t have the time or money to travel far these days, so we do the next best thing. There are a few photos in the DC album. By the way, we’re heading to NY next weekend. Let us know if you’re in the area.
