We tried to get a smaller room but this is all they had :)

So we just spent 8 hours in a bus, we left around 11:00 pm from Montreal... that would make us around 8:00 am in NYC, I didn't sleep at all and just had the worst breakfast ever! I needed something good to happen.

We decided to go chill out a bit in Central Park... which I have to say is a beautiful place. Thank God they have this Oasis amongst the craziness.
Ams holding on to whatever energy she had left... and believe me she had plenty, I'm like an old man beside her :)

Then started the rain... just enough to wake us up!
And for some nice b&w tones.
A really nice place! Love that Tmax 400
Lots of people jogging, biking and walking their dogs!
Had to pass by the John Lennon memorial.
We walked around some more...
and more...
and yes... even more.
I love these streets... feels like you're always walking in a tunnel with all these tall buildings around.
My favorite, the Chrysler building... ageless... timeless.
I seriously don't remember where this was... all I know is that it was near the UN building.

Funny thing about NY at night are the details... so much is going on at once.
You have to click and enlarge to really appreciate what's going on in this shot.
Everything is always moving... it never stops.

Yet you feel enveloped by all this energy... I can't imagine what living here would do to me after a year or so.

Maybe I would become like him... or maybe not.

I think this is one of my favorite shots from the trip.
Not too bad that Electro 35 :)
This shot didn't turn out as I'd hoped... still I like what's going on.
Oh yes! Big city nights...

Next day we walked around Chelsea, Soho, Meat packing district and Chinatown.
She looked so peaceful.
I like the flag!
Why not just play wherever!
Or get away from the heat... my God the heat!
Always plenty of interesting faces...
Gotta keep on moving...
and stay connected!
and those cabs... they are everywhere!
Little stroll in Chinatown.
Saw this on our way. Words to live by!
Cute NY dogs!
Stopped for a drink...
And some more dog watching.
Walked some more around the meat packing district. I like how this shot turned out. The Portra 400 VC... really cool!
Another famous tallboy.
Ams reading her guidebook as we were seeing some dark clouds gathering around.
Sure enough, down came the rain!
Next and last day we walked over the Brooklyn bridge.
Which I have to say was pretty cool!
I even managed to take a picture of a giant head :)
How can I top it after that giant head. That's pretty much it, we had a great time even though I was exhausted on the way back. But at least I had 6 days left back in Montreal to do some R&R.
Hope I didn't bore you with too many pictures.
Thanks for reading and watching!
Take care!
