Just got registered, along with a few others - it is a lovely sunny day in New York, unlike the blizzard I left yesterday in Winnipeg! I left our house at 9:00 am and arrived in New York at 9:30 pm, rather than 4:30, because of the weather - but it's been forgotten today.
The registration opened at 10, and they didn't let us in until exactly 10 - security is very tight. Thank goodness the weather is good.. The line up started at 9:00 - but once inside, they were well prepared. Those of us that had been before, went to a separate line, and got thru even quicker. My problem was that, although i had been before, i guess another Mary Scott had too, and we do not look alike! Or sign names the same! But they quickly got it sorted out, and then we got the extra, and necessary passes for the North Lawn Building, and the ticket for the Opening Ceremony.
Lots of familiar faces - here are photos of some of the CFUW delegates, and Rosemary Mallory (NCWC delegate) and Elisabeth Neuman (from ICW).
Later today, we go to a special program at the Church Centre - Stories and Music. In the meantime - will enjoy New York!
