We stopped at West Point where we found some things that we were looking for in the PX.  One of them was a new camera.  Although I really have enjoyed my digital camera, it is a couple of years old and it was time to upgrade.  We got a really great camera that I have yet to take out of the box and figure out&#8212; we&#8217;ve just been moving too fast.<\/p>\n<p>We went on to New Rochelle and met my friend Sandy at a restaurant for dinner.  What can I say?  Sandy is wonderful- warm and gracious and kind and caring.   When we got to her home, we set up our show quickly as she prepared a feast for the guests.  The people she had invited were delightful and they made the evening very special.<\/p>\n<p>Over Sandy&#8217;s fireplace is the most exquisite picture of her five gorgeous grandchildren.  It made me so happy to see what pleasure she derives from them.  <\/p>\n<p>After breakfast, Sandy packed us a lunch and of we drove to Philadelphia.<\/p>\n<p>Once in Philadelphia, we went into tourist mode, meeting my sister for a picnic lunch and ultimately riding the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.phillyducks.com\">duck<\/a>. What a hoot!  (Actually, what a quack!)  We had a great time riding through the streets of the city listening to really bad duck puns and finally splashing into the Delaware River!  What an adventure!  We all were given plastic duck bills that make a quacking sound when you blow into them.  We all participated in a quacking symphony as we quacked to the chicken song and then to the Blue Danube Waltz.  We really enjoy being tourists and the duck ride was just what we needed after days of being serious adults.<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow, we stay in Philadelphia and continue being tourists.  I will try very hard not to quack too much.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We ended our trip to Newburgh, saying goodbye to our friends, and went on in the direction of New Rochelle.
