We enjoyed a carriage ride through Central Park and marveled at the throngs of walkers, joggers, and cyclists and so many more activities.
Next morning, walked the High Line trail through Midtown. The buildings are incredible and dramatic.
Then on to the 9/11 Memorial—solemn and touching—with the names of all those lost engraved around the pools. Standing on the edge, it is impossible to see the bottom of the interior pool. It all dramatically disappears.
The new transportation center, Oculus, is another Calatrava, dramatic against the New York skyline of Lower Manhattan.
We visited Grand Central Station and strolled the street fair on the Avenue of the Americas. And, of course, we visited Rockafeller Center where we stopped for a drink—it was hot!!!
We finished the visit with our friends with a Broadway show—Kinky Boots. What fun!!
Before departing the Big Apple, Rick and I enjoyed breakfast in the Palm Court at the Plaza hotel
That’s all folks.
