Exciting Times in the Big Apple

First off, we are safe and secure between Alexis' apartment and our hotel just a block away. Friday we got to bike around central park, go out to the Stature of Liberty and Ellis Island and have a wonderful dinner in Little Italy. We have been out today - Early this morning we attended a session at the Manhattan Temple (they only had three sessions today) the buses and subways shut down at noon and by late this afternoon it is getting very quiet - kinda of like it's been Sunday morning all day long. We ate a late lunch at this restaurant as they were putting up the boards and getting ready to close. The worst is expected overnight and into the morning. High winds and lots of rain. We have stocked Lexi's fridge in case we can't get out tomorrow. Church has been cancelled. The weatherman says Sunny skies on Monday! Our love to all.
