NYC Misc. Pics

If you watch the David Letterman show then you know who this guy is... Rupert Jee. I wrote down the address to his Hello Deli before we left on vacation hoping to stop there for a sandwich because I figured that would be the most "famous" person we'd meet.
If you watch The Today Show on NBC then you may have saw us in the background either Saturday or Monday morning. It was fun to watch them taping segments and be in the background waving. Brian, Madison and myself were on TV Saturday morning, and Brian and Austin were on TV Monday morning.
We bought a 48 hour pass for Double Decker bus rides that allowed us to hop on and off as much as we wanted to for 48 hours. It worked out perfect that we had that as our transportation for 2 of the days we were in the city, plus we learned a lot of history and fun facts from the tour guides. It seemed like Madison fell asleep everytime we were on the bus for more than 20 minutes. The kids liked sitting on the top deck, but sometimes it was so hot we opted for the air condition of the lower deck.
Interesting how they park vehicles in Manhattan.
We decided not to go up in the The Empire State Building since we've already been there done that with the Sears Tower many times.

I can't believe I didn't see you on tv. Stupid plants in the way!

Was the sandwich any good? Was that why that guy was on Letterman?

His deli is right around the corner from The David Letterman Show so I think David got to know the owner from going in there so much. There even is a "Letterman" sandwich you can order.
