Manhattan Tours


Day 3

The famous Times Square
 
We went on an organised tour with On Board City Sights. We started out on a bus, swapped to a boat and then back onto the bus again with brief walks around to different sights.

We started out and finished up just past Times Square. I'd highly recomment this tour. The tour guide was a real dag and really knew his stuff. He made the day fun.

We took the boat trip out to see the Statue of Liberty. It's quite beautiful up close but not as big as you'd think.










The rebuilding continues where the Twin Towers once stood. It's going to be a wonderful sight when it's all completed.










If you look carefully, you'll see a couple of familiar mugs on the big screen on Broadway, near Times Square.

Casting the Stones

Long before the Tarot became synonymous with fortune telling, Gypsies used the natural world around them to help them see into the troubled hearts of those who came seeking knowledge and guidance.
River stones, gems, crystals, sticks, needles and bones were often used by the dunkerer [dukkerer] or palm reader.
I love using my own set of river stones that I personally hand picked and charged with healing energy.
When I read, I'm not so much telling a fortune, as looking into the heart of the energy surrounding the person I'm reading for. I believe this gives a more accurate insight into what is at the heart of a problem or situation and can provide real, down to earth ways of helping people deal with what life sometimes throws at them.
Casting the stones is something I love and I hope to continue with my readings for as long as life will allow.
