L to R=Kelly, Greg, Adam
This was my second trip to NYC. I got to meet Greg again, Adam from Poland, and Kelly from Minnesota. I also met up with my brother's friend Jeff once again. This time around, I was serious about having some fun. We did it just like in Latvia. We stayed at the Carlton Arms Hotel. They use hotel a little too freely. This was and is a hostel. Back in the day, it used to be a whore/gambling house. It was a very creative place nowadays. Every room is painted with a different mural/motif. It was very interesting. Some of the highlights from the trip where leaving Adam on the fire escape for multiple hours because he was locked out of the room. Meeting a girl from Italy out on the fire escape and inviting her out with us. Her name was Jemma and she was very nice. I love all Italians. We also got to take a couple of days and go see Greg's house in Conneticut. It was nice to see how the switcher lives his everyday life. Overall the trip was fantastic. Here are some photos. If Greg would send me the other 95% of them, there would

greg is an ass
joey- this is a fantabulous recap of the trip... i forgot about leaving adam out on the fire escape... that was great (he soooo could have got back in if he wanted...haha) you did, however, leave out a couple crucial parts like greg punching me in the face (just so he could use the bathroom first) and you boys not going on any rides with me any rides with me :( but i do agree that greg is a big ol ass and needs to send us those pictures. i will bring down the tapes when i come to visit and you can put them on a video :) cant wait to see you
