Nephele Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 Thanks, Viggen! I entered, because I can't resist a freebie. But, honestly, I think I can put together a more historical-themed tour of NYC than these folks did. And for free! (If any of our UNRV members are thinking of coming to NYC and would like a tourguide. ) Later today or tomorrow I'll write in my UNRV blog about the carved carousel animals currently on exhibit at the American Folk Art Museum, on West 53rd Street, which I went to see yesterday. Bet you didn't know that those antique carousel animals from old Coney Island were carved by Jewish immigrants who had learned their skills in the shtetls of Central and Eastern Europe. -- Nephele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am positive that she could do a better job than any commercial tour guide. Hers could be a customized tour. Take up her offer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
