Central Park New York City

Friday, June 1, 2012

After the ridiculous length of both of the last two days, I allowed myself a bit of a snooze this morning. I woke up around 9, then sort of pottered around the hotel room a bit. Checked some emails,etc. I was really feeling the sunburn by this point and it almost made me not want to go outside. I knew that wasn't an …

Woke up late...again...

Our plan was to go to H&H Bagels, carriage ride to the American Museum of Natural History, then dinner at Blue Moon Cafe (Market Diner). Unfortunately upon arrival at the H&H Bagels address we discovered that they were no longer in business. So on our way back to where we could catch the subway up to …

New York.. New York...OMG! This is honestly one big city .... and we were going to see it in two days ??? I must have been crazy!

So the decision was to buy a New York Pass to enable us to get into as many places as possible for free and also avoid the queues for tickets. The hop on hop off tour bus ride for the 2 days, was also great as …

So I figured that if I want to be a successful travel journalist, I should really start a blog. I used to write a lot when I was younger. My primary days were filled with non-fiction stories about vampires and candy, whereas my high school days portrayed more of a blog structure, things concerning life, emotions and well-being. I know I want to mix …

It was a late start today - we didn't really get going until 11:00. We had brunch at a little place in Hells Kitchen and then caught the subway down to Central Park, where we spent most of he rest of the day. At first we just wandered aimlessly, but after picking up a map at the Dairy, we headed up to the literary walk and along the Mall. We tipped …

Ondanks de jetlag (waar we niet veel last van hadden) waren we om 06.30 uur uitgerust wakker. Ondanks het feit dat de hele nacht het verkeer in NY doorgaat inclusief sirenes..

Ik ben op zoek gegaan naar een bakker voor het ontbijt enz. Het valt niet uit te leggen hoe druk het is als je buiten komt..zelfs om 08.00 AM, komt het getoeter enz …

...Ok, nicht wirklich Berge aber etwas höhere Hügel. Das wäre ja nicht weiter erwähnenswert - es sei denn, man sitzt auf einem Fahrrad und muss den Hügel rauffahren. Und das, wo man doch im Urlaub ist. Wir haben es aber geschafft und mit Fotopausen eine ca. 2,5-stündige Radtour durch den Central Park gemacht. Die wichtigsten Stops waren bei den …

I had to go all the way down to Geneve to take my plane to New York. The train trip took me about 5 hours and when I finally got there it was about 3 in the afternoon.

I had decided not to take a hotel, just to drink my way through the night and then sleep on the plane. Outside the trainstation I had spotted some stripclubs and bars, I …

... is also one of immense romance.  I can think of no more perfect a day as to begin with the sunrise over central park, ambling through the narrow lanes of the village and SoHo, absorbing the bright lights of Broadway and Times Square with the magic ...

... booths later we arrive at our place to find that we are 50 meters from a fantastic view across the Hudson River to New York City. We then spent two days looking around NYC: the Empire State bldg, Grand Central station, Times Square, a harbour cruise, ...

... waiter as their best offering. It was quite delicious, but way too much. We ended up bringing almost half a steak back to the Hotel. Full and happy we strolled back to the Hotel via the Rockefeller Center. Enjoying the summer evening in New York City. ...

The day started with a breakfast and delicious coffee from our local coffee shop. We had a noon appointment at Tejani, a store specialized in wedding Jewelery. We headed out to Tejani and found exactly what we were looking for. A beautiful necklace and ...

... giant wings.  The building itself started humbly, but evolved over time to be a neo-classical behemoth central park, occupying the equivalent of 3 or 4 city blocks.  On my walk there, I had the absolute pleasure and surprise of catching some ...

... these last days since my return have been lackadaisical.   There was a few hours soaking up some sun near the pond at Central Park, a few more through the brick-a-brack of Hell's Kitchen Flea Market and then some more through the old High Line. ...

We woke up in the city that never sleeps. It was a beautiful day. Surprisingly the temperatures here in New York are warmer than in Mexico. New York is struck by a heatwave and they are complaining about the humidity. Well its nothing compared to a ...
