Hello Jundo,

I liked the Amtrak zazen Jundo ... but wow, if I slept like Leon did, I would be paying for it! LOL

Thanks everyone. I very much enjoyed Jundo and Leon's visit. Jundo has a way of making one comfortable. We laughed a lot, sat, had some fun listening to the Allman Bros, walked by the ocean, cooked a meal, pulled vines out by the rose bush , sat some more, not necessarily in that order.
But I think the hockey kyosaku stick was pretty pretty over the top. lol -)

And thank you Rich for being such a wonderful host ... and I have said this before, a big thank you for taking such good care of our traveling jewels. =)

What Daizan and everyone saying about this virtual sangha being almost more real and accessible: I would love to echo that! Sounds like an amazing trip, gassho!

I enjoyed it too. And I agree about the sleeping position, but you can do that kind of thing when you are young! Now we have to work at it.

Hey Guys,

In the Big Apple, where we rode that Staten Island Ferry to see the Statue of Liberty, ate Pizza, visited the 9-11 Memorial (which I explained to Leon who really did not know much about the details) and saw one of the most amazing modern dance companies out there ... Pilobolus. As a matter of fact, got tickets for another program by them tomorrow night. Leon really liked them too.

Tomorrow, heading to the Lower East Side Tenement Museum and the Jewish Museum to expose Leon to that part of my roots. Also, Chinatown because the noodles are good.

Jundo,

Neat-o! Thanks for all the updates.
It's nice to think of Leon in the future, how he will always remember this crazy trip with his Dad when he was a kid.
