My wife & I spent 4 days in NYC this week. We were both very limited in walking, but we did manage 2 - 3 miles a day.
We did see "Beautiful", the Broadway show about the musical life of Carol King. It was fabulous.
Here are a few images from our visit: (Best viewed in Download)
1. My wife's new T Rex friend - Museum of Natural History
2 & 3. Katz's Delicatessen - not good for you but sure was delicious (Pastrami sandwich). The counter has 23 slicers who cut pastrami & corned beef by hand. My 2nd job in life was a deli counter man. I worked at a variety of delicatessens for over 45 years. I loved watching the operation. The crowd is CRAZY!
4 - 6: views of NYC skyline from a Circle Line cruise and Statue of Liberty.
7 - 10: Variety of shots from Washington Square Park, Greenwich Village
Thanks for viewing.

Great shots. You kept busy.
Nice set. My wife wouldn't like me taking pictures of her beside an old dinosaur.

Thanks! I'm already an "old dinasaur", so my wife is used to it!

Wow you put on a lot of mileage on the pedometer! Nice shots....I had to look twice at the park bench scene I thought a squirrel had sprouted wings! BTW some city squirrels get aggressive because folks feed them (a ticket-able offense if caught). Some have gotten bitten because others won't feed them - spoiled brat squirrels!
NYC skyline shots look better at night or just after sundown - I live in NYC and never seemed to get a chance to set up my tripod near the waterfront at night!
The last shot of the skateboarder in very good and says "summer in the city..."

Thanks for the memories. The circle line is a great way to see the city. Few natives of the City have ever taken it . The Shot of Lady Liberty is outstanding Frame it

A very nice set. I'm glad you and your wife had a good time.
Very nice series, Mark. Hope you had good weather. We were in DC last week and the weather was beautiful

Thanks, Carole. The weather was almost perfect. A bit overcast, cool and windy in the AM on Wed., but it turned into a perfect day in the PM.

Good weekend, Mark, thanks for sharing.
