Back in Harlem!

Hey you all,
The exhibit was well worth my money anddefinately a really neat thing to see! Just the fact that I was looking at artifacts and sculptures made more then 2500 years ago, and they are still in good shape. I'm sure they cleaned them and what not but still just to see the pot that held the intestines and organs in and the jewelry that King Tut wore was simple mind blowing. They had a replica of King Tut's body, that was actually realy cool to see because they had the video of when they first unwrapped it and the repelica looks exactly the same, but I guess that the point! It was just really really cool! Everyone still has time to see it. It's going to be in New York till January then its going to Egypt forever so get up here and take a gander at it! the 3D movie was cool too, it was abut the tomb of Ramses and what it took to find it. So it all seemed unreal! It definately blew my mind! One thing that stunk is that I couldnt take pictures! So I took some with my photographic memory! haha :)
After that I walked the streets of NYC and Times-Square1 Went to the M&M's store and Dylans Candy bar! I walked alot today but it was such nice weather that I didn't mind it at all! It was a busy day and now I'm glad I get to relax a little before going to watch my family friend play softball.
Today was a good day guys and I hope tomorrow will be even better!
Peace Out,
Joey

King Tut Exhibit Today!

Hey guys,
Today I'm going to the King Tut exhibit in Times-Square at 9:30! I'm excitied! It was here 30 years ago and now its back until January, then goes back to Egypt forever!!! So I will atleast see it before it goes home! I'm not too sure on what to do afterwards...probably a musuem!
Well I just wanted to let you know what I was doing today so you can enjoy in some of the fun! I got 2 days in the city left and I have to make the most of it! So it should be a great time! I'll update you all in a little bit!
Peace Out,
Joey

P.S.
Keep up the prayers!

Chicken and Waffles!

Today I went to Amy Ruth's Restaurant, its famous for it's southern style cooking! I had chicken and waffles which were by far more then amazing! I dont know what made them so amazing but they were delicious! Maybe it was the way it's cooked, the fact that I've been craving chicken and waffles forever or just that they were that damn good! I was impressed! I had it with a tall glass a milk, and folks this was dinner by the way! It was just so good! It was drowned in syrup!Yummmmm! :) Some of the best food I have had! Just thought I should share that with y'all!
Peace Out,
Joey

In Harlem with a family friend!

Hey guys,

I'm leaving on thrusday morning to go back home! I kind of have a plan on what to do while I'm staying here but I'm just going to go with the flow, play it by ear and see what I can get done and what not! I definately want to see the King Tut exhibit and go to a couple musuems! Maybe walk around Central Park for a little depending on the weather! and I dont know what else! Since I'm only here for a couple days my dyas will be slammed pack with stuff to do so I'll give you guys an update either in the morning or nights, maybe even both! If I can get around to it!

Laid Back Today!

Hi guys,
today was a very chill day. We slept in and went to mass at 12:30! Mass was good, I enjoyed it becuase its been a couple weeks since I last went to mass, I know...thats bad! But When I get home I will make up for it! After mass Nick got a hair cut and Theresa got her nails did! They are just such cute little kids! Then we went to a Sushi buffet and ate sooo much! After all that we went up to North Shore and watchd the sunset over The Long Island Sound,which is a body of water! We walked on the boardwalk and enjoyed eachothers company! It was very peaceful! when we got home I went night swimming and that was very peaceful as well! I got to go swimmig by myself in their heated pool becuase the kiddy's were getting ready for bed! It was good! Tomorrow I got a busy day, well kind of a busy day! i will be getting on a train in the afternoon and going to the city to stay with another family friend there! I'm nervous but I can't wait to experience the city again! Wahoo! I go home on thrusday so my trip is only 3 more days long!!!!
Peace Out,

Just a Cute little Picture!

Fun day in New York City!

Hey guys,
This morning we left to go to mid-manhattan and got there around 11ish! It was a kind of hot but with a good breeze... nothing like Florida heat, much different. We found great parking right by St.Patricks Cathedral and Radio City Music Hall! It was awesome! We walked around the cathedral, ate at Stardust Diner and walked Times-Square! I enjoyed it alot! Times-Square was packed with people as usual in the summer but it was cool! Nothing like being surrounding by people and sky scrapers.. nothing like that feling at all! The Stardust Diner is where the broadway people, who are trying to make it big, work. They sing songs while they serve you and it is good entertainment. The service might not be the best but hey!, you can't ask for too much can ya!
Tomorrow we are going to go to mass and I honestly don't know what else! All I know is that I'm having a great time and I know whatever we do it will be fun and we will have a good time doing it!
it's getting to the last days of my trip and I'm sad about it.. I've had a wonderful trip and sooner or later it had to come to an end! I'm looking foward to coming back home in some ways and I can't wait to enjoy some good ole family time! that feeling might not last for long but I know it will be worth it to be back home! I do miss my family and my cute tiger! SHERE-KAHN!!! haha... well I will type a new post tomorrow and my prayers are with you all!
Peace Out,
Joey

Well yesterday we decided on going to the city today from about 9-6ish come back to the house and have a B-B-Q with Uncle Bill! Im excitied to go to the city again and see Times-Square! Also all the other new places they are taking me too!! O00Oooh!,So exciting!!

Partying with the Family!

Helloooo,
Today was Nicolas's last day of school so they are having a couple of friends over for an end of the year party! its beautiful weather here in LI for a pool party! It's going good here in Ny and I'm enjoying myself! I'm liking the doo I just got yesterday and I might be able to kind of poof it out so it can look more crazier! becuase thats how I like to look... crazy!! Tomorrow we are going to go into the city and they are going to show me around! It's gunna be bunches of fun!
It actually kind of feels like Florida here in LI, atleast what I think jax,Fl feels like! I've heard it has gotten much hotter since I left! So maybe when I come back it will cool down, because I'm just that COOl of a person! haha :) gosh I crack myself up! I'm just hanging out at the house for pretty much the whole day and I'm glad its all going well!
Peace Out,
Joey

P.S. My prayers are with y'all!

Did something new today!

Hey guys,

So before this trip I got a new hairstyle...dreads and then about a week after I got them I took them out! I went back to longhair hippie style for a little over a week and now I got a new style! its different then what I normally would pick but I like it. It's a new look for me! So here is an overview of what I have looked like on this trip!....

Tanning in New York!

Hello,
Today at dead noon my cousins and I jumped into their heated pool and swim for about an hour! It was real fun becuase we also at lunch outside by the pool! It felt like a Florida day here in LI! I'm having alot of fun here and enjoying my stay with my family! It was the first time I actually just floated on a float and tanned for an hour! There were three of us on one float, it was funny!
Peace Out,
Joey

1st real night in LI:NY!!!

LI= Long Island
Hello everyone,
Tonight I went to the LI ducks game! It was fantastic! We got to sit in the section behind home plate and like no joke my seat was almost behind the catcher! I had alot of fun there..!!! They won 2-1 in the first game of the double header.. we didnt stay to see the 2nd game. Even though it wasn't the pro's, it was still really cool to watch!
I gotta say that it does feel really good to be with a part of my family.. the west coast was fun but there were tought times in just the fact of being alone, but hey! I got through it and I DID it. So HA to all you haters! jk jk..but seriously! It was a good expierence for me and I'm super glad I stepped up to a big challenge and got through it. I wouldnt say I got through it by myself because lord knows the were the few who helped me but I did actually DO it by myself. I love the fact that I followed through with a plan that I had around Christmas time! This trip has been unbelieveable! I hope I will be this strong when I return to Jax! Like I have said before... keep praying for me...becuase I haven't hit my actual home yet! But I'm praying and God has definately put his hands where they needed to be with me on this trip. I can't thank God enough and I can't thank my parents, Mark and my family here in LI enough!
To all of you who have been and still are following me.. THANK YOU! It meant alot to me and the comments people have left helped me alot.
Tomorrow is a new day and I can't wait to get it started!!
Peace Out,
Joey

I made it!

Yesterday I made it to the fourth and final corner of the country! I'm in Long Island New York with my family! It's been relaxing and chill. I'm happy to be with family! Seattle was awesome and I'd advise everyone I know to go there! It was alot of fun and the flight actually didnt seem 5 hours to me! After the plane, I hoped on a train and went to Deer Park where I got picked up by some of my family members! It was great to see them and give them big hugs!
I'm just going to chilax here in Long Island for about a week then going to the city for about 2-3 days after that! Tonight we might go see a Ducks game, minor league baseball! It's going to be alot of fun! I'm happy my trip is going well and I'm getting to the places safe and sound. I miss my cat, Shere-Kahn, and my immediate family! I miss my friends as well and I can't wait to throw a little hang out so everyone can see what I did and the pictures I took while I was on this trip! I'm sorry I didnt give you an update yesterday, it was a little hectic and busy! I'll be sure to put a new post up tonight after the game or what not!!
Peace Out,

Thai in Seattle!

Hello everyone,
I had two new things that I have never had before.. thai food and bubble tea! Thai was delicious and quick! I had, i think this is how you spell it, Pad Kee Mow, which was noodles,asparagus,carrots,bean sprouts,rice and chili sauce, with my choice of chicken! It was good! I also had it with no spice!
Bubble tea was good as well! There werre tons of flavors to pick from and I got mango! It tastes as if it was mango juice with some water, but what made it buble tea was the tapioca. I don't exactly know what tapioca are but i think it might be a fruit or berry, its circular and very chewy. Chewy like rubber. It got annoying to chew after awhile but still it was something new and very good!
Peace Out,
Joey

Happy Fathers Day!

You are the dad that every kid wishes he had and I'm lucky to have as father. You're awesome ,funny, cool, generous, loving, and sooo much more then I can explain! Sorry for the times i disrespect you and treat you like crap! I'm glad we can get through rough times and still laugh about mistakes we have made! Dad, you mean alot to me and I LOVE YOU!
I miss you alot too man!

Joey

Some pictures from the train and Seattle!

Just got back from...

Hey you all,
I left around 12 oclcock to walk around University street in Seattle and I ended up calling a taxi to take me to The Space Needle and the musuem! Both of those places are a must see in your lifetime! It takes exactly 82 seconds to get to the O deck of the Space needle! The elevator travels at 5mph going up and 10mph going down! It a spectacular view from the observation deck! I could see far far way almost to Neverland and it was mostly a clear day out. I mean yeah it was overcast but the sun still came through! Seattle is a beautiful city!
The Expiernece Music Project/Science Fiction musuem was cool! They had a like half a floor dedicated to Jimi Hendrix and It was definately an expierence for my ears... He can play the shit out of a guitar! I never really gave him the credit he desrevessss or deserved I guess because he's died!! They also had like a atleast 100 guitars that went 15ft up..it hard to explain, but it was cool! The Sci-fi was interesting to me because i never reallu paid too much attention to those types of movies but now I have a different perspective o those movies or Sci-fi in general. I got some pictures and i walked around the musuem with a camcorder so when you all watch it it will be as if you are walking throught it! Your welcome...haha :)
Peace Out,
Joey

In Seattle!

Hello everyone,
I arrived in Seattle last night around 8 but didnt get to the place I'm staying at till like 1030 bc we went food shopping and he was showing me a little bit of the city and what breath taking views it has! It's a beautiful city.. and I only saw it at nigt! So I can't wait till otday/tonight to go see it some more! Its going to be a little tough for me to get around bc our family friend has work everyday that I'm here, but I will figure it out.. Atleast I'm in Seattle riiight!!!
I don't know for sure what I'm going to do or see today but I'm stoked! I hope dad,Kayla and Jm had a great week at camp and I hope they get a great nights rest tonight! I'm gunna get up and start getting ready so I'll update you sometime soon!
Peace Out,
Joey

Been on Coast Starlight for 30 hours!

Hey everyone,
I'm at a stop in Portland, Oregon and we are about 5 hours out of Seattle! I didn't sleep that well on the train but I'm not tired! it's been a really cool train ride... I was up at 5 o'clock in the morning and sat in the observation deck for about three hours just watching this beautiful land of Cali get woken up by the sun! It is definately worth the money to come on this trip and I'd advise all of you to do it atleast once in your life! I hope that I will get the chance to do it again but with some friends or atleast someone else besides just myself. I'm not saying that I'm bored and annoyed of myself or anythhhhhinggg..! Like I've said its been a wonderful trip all together and I'm happy that I'm following through with it.
I'm getting picked up at the station by a family friend and after I get settled in with them and stuff i wil give you another update!
Peace Out,
Joey

It's 12:34 on the Train!

Hey,
I'm still up on the train and it's pretty quite at this time of night! I'm excitied to see how the sunrise looks in the morning over the mountains! I don't feel like sleeping so I'm going to stay up till the morn! haha, I know its stupid but hey whatever... its summer! Im not feeling tired right now but when i do I'll go back to my seat and take a little cat nap.
the train is on time for every arrival and departure so far, so the way it looks like now I'll be arriving in Seattle around 9. thats perfect timing! I'm stoked for Seattle, i've always wanted to visit the west coast and I'm actually visitng and traveling the west coast.. it's almost a dream come true! Oh my goshhhh, I can't waitttt! I'll be staying with a family friend so thats a bonus!! It's going to be a hell of a time!

Peace out,
Joey

P.S. keep praying guys!!

Hey Everyone!!,

I'm sitting on the train in the lounge cart looking out upon hills and fields full of God's green nature. It's enjoyable but very long! I try to keep myself entertained as much as possible but there is only so much to do on here! I slept for a little bit and now i'm just waiting to see the sunset over these hills/beach! I still got aout 24 hours till I'll be arriving in Seattle! It's very relaxing and the people are nice. You don't find too many stuck up or mean-ish people around here, or atleast I haven't met any! Everyone I have talked to is talkative and willing to actually talk!
I actually don't mind how long the train ride is but just the facts it 34 hours is killing me! Today has gone by fast, we are about to be in San Jose! I still got on about 17 stops till we get to Seattle! I just got to keep myself busy!
Peace Out,
Joey

On the Train!!!

Hello everyone,
I'm on Coastal Starlight, the train to Seattle! It's really intersting to get to see the state of California on a train! Its actually spaceous and I'm sitting next a fun and talking gentlemen who will keep me company for the next 35 hours! or atleast when we are awake..
I'm not pullged into an outlet so my computer might die soon! The conductor is gunna put a power strip somehwere so we can charge our phones, ipods,laptops and whatever else! The train is a double decker and travels at a decent speed! I'm looking at valleys and mountains on both sides of me right now... we are still in Cali and will be for probably the next couple hours because of the stops the train makes! I have this giddy little feeling inside just to see Seattle and actually stay with people I somewhat know! Its going to be blast and I can't wait to walk around the Space Needle, Pike's Place and the Jimi Hendrix museum!
Peace Out,
Joey

Up Early!

Hey guys,
I'm about to check out of the hotel and return the car! After that I'm heading to The Union Station in Los Angeles in a taxi! Yippie! I'm excited for the train ride and to see some spectacular views of the mountains and of the Pacific ocean!!
It's funny that you say thats where muscle beach started, UP, beacuase as i was walking around I did notice this pretty big ciricular work out area at Venice beach! I thought it was pretty funnny!
Well I'm going to go now, I'll update you soon(hopefully)!
Peace Out,
Joey

Sunset blvd and Venice Beach!

Hello everyone,

I walked and enjoyed the weather on Sunset Blvd today. I saw huge, elegant, beautiful houses and probably drove next or on the same road as someone famous! So in a way... That can make me famous too.. Wahoo! jk jk.. but it was a good time. I did not get to visit the pier and do "hippie heaven'' in San Fran so it looks like I'm planning another trip sometime soon! And bring some of you guys with me soo oyu can enjoy what i have so far! That'd be fun!

Venice beach is cool but sketchy place to me! Atleast the sidewalk market seems a bit... ghetto but the beach itself is beautiful! It's definately something different and not what you would see in Jacksonville but then again it's California!! I'm getting up at the butt-crack of dawn tomorrow and will be on a train for aboutthe next two days.. I hope my cellphone works and laptop so I can keep you updated on how its all going!

I'll type a new post tomorrow morning before I leave!

Peace Out,

Joey

Goodmorning Santa Monica!

Hey guysss,
I'm about to walk sunset blvd and go to Venice Beach! It should be a lot of fun because the temperature outside is perfect so its beach weather! I can't wait to see a sunset over the ocean! I'm pretty excitied! I slept in a little longer then usual today but it's all good! I atleast feel refreshed! Tonight will be my last night in the beautiful state of California!!!!
I'm going to get ready to go out soo I'll update you in a couple hoursss!
Peace Out,
Joey

In Santa Monica!

I just arrived here in SM! It wasnt too bad of a drive but still kind of made me tired.. i don't know exactly what I'm going to do tonight but I know tomorrow I'm going to Sunset Blvd and go to the beach! Tomorrow will be the last full day I'm in Cali, thursday I get on a train at 10am and head towards Seattle! Sounds like fun doesn't it!! I should arrive in Seattle around 9 o'clock on friday night! Its a 34 hour ride.... wahooo!
Santa Monica is nice and the weather couldn't be better.. in my mind atleast! It's cool outside and sunny!
Peace Out,
Joey

2 more days in Cali!

Hey guys,
I'm just about to get back on the interstate and head towards Santa Monica.... but if I see something along the way that I like, I will stop and take it in!! Monterey is one hell of a city! It has so much to do and so much to see that you don't want to leave! but I have too:(..
If there was a small earthquake in SD, i didn't feel it. better yet I didn't know there even was one! But that was one thing that I would have to get used to if I moved out here! It might be cool to feel the ground shake and stuff!
Like i said I got to get in the road so I will update you in a few hours!!
Peace,
Joey

Monterey!

Hello everyone,
I'm in Monterey and I just got done with the aquarium and whale watching! It was fn besides getting seasick on the boat!! :( Other then that.. it was an awesome day! I saw about 4 humpback whales, dolphins, otters,sea lions, sea horses anddd anything else that perhaps lives in the ocean. i also ate some clam chowder out of a bread bowl and got some really delicious chocolate at a little store that makes their own candy! It was soo goood!
Tomorrow I'm on the road to Santa Monica to see the beautiful side of L.A.! Time is going by pretty fast and I do kind of like it that way! It keeps me on track and busy!
I'll post a new post up sometime soon! BYE!

Tomorrow is going to be a busy day.. I'm thinking about going to the beach on Coronda Island and then going to gaslamp Quater because I didn't do it today! Then after that I have to head out of San Diego and go someplace else! I'm thinking about just driving straight to San Fran. but it's a lengthy trip. Maybe I stop like half way or something... like I said, I'm not too sure!
I'm glad that the trip is going well and the weather is staying beautiful. Today is was overcast and just sprinkled, but still nice temperature! It's awesome guys, it truely is!
Peace Out,
Joey

The Pearl!

Hey you all,
I just checked into my 2nd hotel at San Diego! It would be as if Urban Outfitters designed a motel/hotel, this is what it would look like. It's all up with the modern style but yet very relaxing and laid back. It definately fits me well!
I'm going to San Diego musuem of art in about an hour and then I don't know what after that! Maybe the Gaslamp Quater still or some club! WAHOOO!
Today I also went to mass at St.Joseph's Catherdal in downtown. It's was a quick mass but beautiful church! I got some good pics of it too! By the wayyyyy.... Tonight i will put up some pictures if I can figure out how and show you a little bit of how the west coast looks and feels! So if you are on late tonight, you will get to see them but if not theres always in the morning!
Peace Out,
Joey

At Balboa Park!

Hello people,
I'm at Balboa Park right now, charging my camera.. my plans did change! I didn't go to the musuem of Contempary Art because this park has 15 musuems and like 11 gardens. So that sounded more intresting to me! I already went to the musuem of men and bought my ticket to go to the musuem of art. The musuem of art is open till 9 and same with the musuem of photography, but all the others close at 5. So I'm doing the art and photograph later on tonight. I'm staying in San Diego another night and will leave tmrw about noonish or so to go to.... I don't know where yet! But I'm loving San Diego...the weather is about 55-60 degress so it's nippy but definately better then Florida! :) haha.
Well my camera is done charging so I'm ready to go take lots more pictures! I'll be on later tonight!
I love you, the Klink Klan!
Peace Out,
Joey

Start of the 2nd day!

Hey everyone,
Well I made it through the first night here in San Diego and I slept pretty good. Today is going to be a cool and artsy day... I'm going to the musuem of contempary arts in downtown then going to Gaslamp Quarter. I think I might spend another night here, but I'm not too sure. Tell me what you think i should...
I must get going now to enjoy this beautiful weather and place!
Peace out,
Joey

At my motel in San Diego!

Hey guys and girls,
I gotta say the West Coast is nothing short of spectacular! I landed around 11:30(pacific time zone) and got my rental car by 1. I didn't really know what to do when i first got here sooo I drove around for a little, taking in the nice/crisp/fresh air, then decided to hit up the San Diego Zoo! That zoo was prettty coool i must say, but the tempature here just made it all the better! It was cool with a little breeze.. I'm not used to that in the summer time. It's different then what Jax gets in the way that there is like no humidity. It's super nice here in San Diego and I fell in love with it the second i got off the plane.
The zoo was incredible! I saw panda bears that China didn't get back(ha!), I saw the cousin of a bald eagle, and hippos! The hippos are huge! But yet they move elegantly through the waters of their habitat. I stayed and toured the whole zoo in just about 3 hours, give and take a couple minutes. It was definately worth the money to go! I'm not going to put the pictures up until I get home, sorry guysss, you gotta wait!:)
But i do miss my family alot and I hope they are all safe! I love you, the Klink Klan!
Pray for me, I'll need your prayers! I'll be doing the same but for everyone else!
God Bless us!
Peace,
Joey

Today is the day!

I left Jax about630 in the morning and now I'm in Mephis waiting for my plane for San Diego. My flight to here was alright and short but this is going to be a little longer flight! I'm supposed to arrive in San Diego around noon aand then the fun starts! I'm super excitied and can't wait to travel the West Coast and actually see the sunset over the Pacific! It's gunna be EPIC!
By the way, yesterday, I got dreads! So I must say that I look pretty darrrn good! I'll upload some pics so everyone can see how awesome they look!
Well I'm gunna go, I'll write another post tonight after I'm done visiting some places in San Diego! Wahooo!
Peace Out,
Joey
