New York, New York ...

 We arrived late from our flight from San Francisco so once we checked in to our hotel, we went to a little pizza joint around the corner, Uncle Paul's and ordered a couple of pizzas.  Deeelicious!
~
 The next day was spent exploring on foot - this is heading to Times Square...
~
 We went up to The View - a revolving restaurant and bar and took in the night skyline...
~
 Times Square was buzzing, so many people...
~
 ~
 A bus ...
~
 ~
 Our only means of refrigeration - an ice bucket - no fridge in our hotel room!
~
 ~
 Flatiron building on Fifth Avenue...
~

 Central Park - this is such a huge expanse of parklands, we only saw one corner of it!
~
 It was a beautiful sunny day ...
~
 We hired a row boat and went boating for half an hour ...

 A typical hot dog with mustard and sauce...

 Beautifully manicured gardens everywhere...
~
 Large lawned areas for just sitting...

  2. I am so glad you are enjoying your trip...lucky for our tourists, Central Park is NOT owned by the federal government, otherwise it would be off limits;-) I wonder if they would have to lay traps over it, to prevent all those living around it from seeing its beauty, like Mount Rushmore... LOL.

    I do hope the rest of your trip is very enjoyable.
    blessings, jill
