Ok Today was Sunday so of course it was church first. We went to the earliest church so we could get out with enough time to go to some museums. Since it was a rainy day that was a great plan. Well we went to the Singles Ward at 9am and it was nice not hearing screaming babies during Sacrament Meeting. We didn't know anyone but we stayed all three hours. I love church!! I love no matter where you go the TRUTH is still taught. YAY!!! We met some fantastic girls namely Adrienne Martin and Ruth. Thanks for being my new friends!! We did make a connection with a girl there named Laura Bennett. Her sister (Marilyn) married my 1st cousin Jason Kiene!! It really is a small world we are living in. Her dad was mission companions with Bryan's dad in Argentina too!! Crazy I tell ya!! So after church we ate our other half of our New York (huge) pizza in the kitchen of the church. We used the microwave to warm it up. It was fast, free and convenient. We then headed through the beautiful, green, lush Central Park and then to the MET (The Metropolitan Museum of Art) and stayed a few hours. It was so BIG!!I think it had every type and period of civilization there has ever been. From Knights to Egyptians. It was overwhelming but cool to see. Then we headed to the Guggenheim. That was a cool looking structural building but the art inside was Lame with a capital L. It took us about 30-45mins. to go through the whole thing. It wasn't nearly as big as the Met. We then went to our night bus tour that we had scheduled. This was the only thing that didn't work out so perfectly because it rained on us most of the time. The bus ride took us over the Manhattan Bridge to Brooklyn and back over the Brooklyn Bridge. It was an hour and a half ,WET ride. It was an adventure. We then ate an delicious meal at Nino's by our hotel after we went home and changed our clothes. It was a great day!!!.JPG)

Hi there! this is so funny - I was looking up my sister Marilyn, to find a blogpost on her that I'd lost track of, and I saw the google search result say "her sister, Marilyn, married my first cousin Jason" and I was like - oh, I wonder which of my sister's this is talking about. read it and it's about me. Haha, but my name is Lori Barratt - you were close with Laura Bennett! :) I am glad it looked like you enjoyed the trip. Have a great day and maybe we'll see you guys again!
