New York City – Day 18 of 31

Mike reading on the subwayEveryday we ride the subway for one hour and 15 minutes in the morning and one hour and 15 minutes in the evening. We have the longest commute of any of the missionaries participating in our training.
 
Some commuters pass their time by sleeping, listening to music or working on their laptops. We pass the time by reading. What this means is that some days we are getting more then two solid hours of reading. In 18 days we have knocked out six books between the three of us.
 
Maddy sleeping on the subwayThe commute is long, but we are trying to make the best of it. Although, some days a little nap is nice too.
 
Check back frequently in July as we will be sharing lots of stories and pictures from our month in New York City.
