Hey there,
Hope all is going well back in the UK. Rumour has it that your weather is improving!!
This morning after shaking off the jet-lag cobwebs and a nice breakfast, we all jumped on the buses to the campus of the Yeshiva University in the Washington Heights neighborhood of Manhattan. This is a truly unique, world famous institution which combines an extremely high level of further, secular, university education and degrees; with a deep and profound Jewish educational experience. The "I" group's first session was a presentation by Miss Krista Sims. Krista Sims is a very successful Wall Street businesswoman, who is a religious, orthodox, African convert. Her story is entertaining, enlightening and inspiring. This was followed by lunch.
The I group had their very own presentation from Ben Harris after lunch at YU. When this was done, they jumped on their bus down to Chelsea Piers at the other end of Manhattan for an afternoon of bowling fun. I group will be doing Six-Flags tomorrow. Bowling was followed by free-time in Manhattan for the I group and then to bed to recover from another packed day on the East coast.
Hope you are enjoying the weather... How long can it last??!!??
Love from the Aish Crew
(There are some photos but they seem to be from the group that went to Six Flags.)
