A Voyage to New York City in the Future
It was not long before I embarked on a new voyage, which was a rather interesting one because of the unusual circumstances of how I got there.

I thought it was worth a shot and so I stepped into the machine, pointed to a country on the map and mysteriously I found myself in New York City in the year 2003.

One teenager had a plastic headband over his head with two round pieces, which covered his ears. I politely questioned what they were but he did not answer me so I tapped him and asked again and he finally responded, "Dude, you've never seen these before? Where you from? Well obviously not from here...
