Farewell New York - It was fun!

I fly in a few hours, so here are a last lot of images.  I can't express how it feels to look out on the crowds, knowing that tomorrow I return to a world where such masses of wonderful beings are a distant joy; a treat to sample once in a while, and a miracle of organized community to be admired, but not burdened by.  I will be glad to be home, once again.  I will be gladder when Jeffery can be there with me.

headed to his train - the F

when I first came in May, the tall building was only half built

sun reflections from morning window-mirrors dance on many buildings







such a busy place, I never did get to taste their pizza - sorry Kyria!

I guess I can say it, or sing it - I love New York!

Thinking of Sharon, who grew up visiting this area

I rode up to 181st St and walked back to 125th to do the area from the George Washington Bridge to Harlem.  Later, I went from 81st to 59th, to do the Central Park West area.  Had a lamb gyro in Central Park, grabbed the A train back to my motel and fell asleep.
