Rhode Island

It's 2am, we're staying overnight at an extended stay place pretty cheap in West Warwick, RI. Just saw the new Batman movie (it rocked!), so just going to upload pics and crash.


Igor lent me his Apple Airport hub. This this is so handy! No wifi in the room, so just plug this thing in, and now my three laptops have internet. Sweet! Right now I'm in another hotel with wifi, but they charge 5 bucks per machine. I just plug this thing into my laptop and I can share the connection. =)


Picked up Bev at LGA at 2am on Friday



Amazing dim sum at Ocean Jewel in Flushing. This area of Queens is the "new" Chinatown in NY.


Almost 2000 year old boddisatva wood carving


What the heck is this???

I've been a total slacker, and never got around to uploading the rest of the pics for my "Part2" of my last trip! Well, since that trip, I've been back to NY twice... I'm in NY right now in fact.

I'm actually at the Marriot blogging from my new laptop, waiting for my raid to form up. I've got some time, so figured I'd at least get some pics from this trip so far uploaded!


Drove from LGA to into Manhattan to meet some friends for dinner near sunset


This Indian place in the East Village was really funny. Two places, *right next door* to each other... the two guys in front are fighting for the customer as they come up the stairs.


Lots of lights!


Huge Wii Fit ad!


This hole-in-the-wall in Huntington had the best pizza I've ever had!


The pizza was pre-cooked and served by the slice. They heat it up in a pizza oven when you order it. But the add the toppings fresh. The tomato was fresh tomato, added to the pizza after it's already hot. The peppers were skillet cooked separately and added to the pizza at the end. It was amazing!
