Tour of the U.N Building



The team Visited the United Nations Building on 42nd Street and we engaged in some subtle diplomacy in achieving our goal of getting some lunch!! after the tour. It was a fantastic site to behold and we all know that an Australian will be the next Secretary-General, maybe even Michael???

Statue of Liberty











Saturday delivered a magnificent day to visit the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. One should take a week to explore Ellis Island and reflect on the millions of immigrants who helped shape America's future from 1890s and the challenges they faced. On the other hand, Lady Liberty and the Manhattan skyline are so engrossing up close and wonderful ...... followed by lunch in Jersey City. Thanks Jack for a great day!

Harriet by the Sea


Thursday evening concluded with a wonderful GSE dinner at the home of President Elect, Harriet Primack in Sea Bright on the Atlantic Ocean. Louise and Sophie wandered the beach in search of lucky stones and a good time was had by all! Unfortunately, little Steve was no match for the "Big Fella". Thank you Harriett, dinner was absolutely fabulous!

Visit to Smith Barney



Matthew & Michael continued their relentless search for answers with a visit to Chuck Watson at Citi Smith Barney in fashionable Red Bank. Situated in the heart of Red Bank's financial district, competition is fierce with adjoining offices of Wachovia, Merrill Lynch and others in close proximity.
