Haven't been to NYC for 25 years. It's still there, mostly as I remember it. First stop, was Ground Zero. What a sense of sadness, even though construction is underway, the area is very humbling. Lots of tourists, but all had a sense of reverence and loss.


On the double decker tour bus, our route took us to the U.N. I had to find the knotted revolver statue. Sure enough, uthere it was.
I thought I would do the appropriate thing:

There was a security detail,
armed 
, just to my right, so I didn't want to piss on it, or anything else crude. So I took out my NRA Card, and Florida CCW Permit.

The Asian tourists, didn't know what to think....

Did the Empire State, Central Park, Soho, Times Square stuff...

Wouldn't mind this pic on top of my house,


I got more pics, but for another time. I just knew the U.N. buffoons and their stupid statue deserved some DRTV "love"....

Weather was fantastic. Still too damn expensive, but a good day trip. Damn sure would NEVER want to live there.
