I hope I spelled that correctly. In 1967 New York had a World's Fair. Every state was honored. When Kansas was honored Ray was going back to cover it. He took us with him. We camped on the way but stayed at the Statler Hilton in New York City. It has since been torn down (the hotel not the city) for the Madison Square Garden. There were many nuns staying in our hotel and I know when my beads broke they ran across the floor and under the nuns' outfits. They all tried to help me but the beads only cost $2.00 and were not worth it.
At the fair Italy had brought The Pieta and they wanted the crowds to move so they had moving things you stood on so you just went across and did not dwell. Cindy has now seen it in Italy so it got returned. There were many Japanese at the fair and Scott had very blond hair so they were always taking his picture. He turned seven while we were on our trip but celebrated at Niagara falls when we were back in a tent.
