I loved the sights from the top of the "Rock"
These were two of the cutest little things I have ever seen. They were snuggled up next to me as I sat on the bank under the Brooklyn Bridge
I took hundreds of photographs around Central Park. It was such a magical place on Memorial Day. The weather was amazing and the people were all so friendly and happy.
This guy was entertaining the crowds in Central Park
One of many photos I took in Time Square, this time by day.
The skyscrapers were so impressive, towering above me. I had permanent neck ache from walking around looking at the sky.
The Trump Tower has an amazing waterfall inside. I will reveal it to you in a future post.
If only I had somebody to buy something for..... sigh....
Ground Zero..... lest we forget.....
A trip to the museum of natural history. These creatures looked really mean as fossils. I can't even begin to think what they were like alive!
A trip to Wall Street.
Back to Time Square at night. I spent most of my evenings wandering around time square, just people watching and taking in the atmosphere.
Walking back to my hotel in the early hours of the morning. The skyscrapers were as impressive by night as they were during the day. This hansom fellow is the Bank of America building...
...and this guy is the Empire State building. The very top of the building was literally touching the clouds.
More to follow soon, with a full report :o)

wall street - and no pic with the bulls? lol
I love the nighttime pics, these are all really great to look at...especially for those who have never been to a big city like that you take snippets of everyday life and goings on
I'm staring at the last pic of the empire state building and cannot decide what those statuesque things are on each side that look like they have wings. Birds, gargoyles? hmm
Now outside of pictures did you have any interesting experiences, meeting any interesting people or characters? I'd like to hear all about it!
Another set of amazing photos G - I think the New York ones are your best yet. Can't wait to see/hear more about the trip!
The pics are stunning. I love the way you captured the city. So vibrant and full of life.
I must confess, the ducks are my favourite xx
Oh wow...your pictures are great...every time I see them I want to go back to NYC! I've been here for a month and I went there twice, lol...something tells me I'll spend lots of time in Manhattan.
Many thanks for the fabulous trip around New York. I have never been there, so I thoroughly enjoyed looking at all your photographs.You captured the height of the buildings very well - I felt quite hemmed in......
Minz
