5th October 2012



First day in New York and the temperature has been in the high 70s, cue to do too much walking.  Central Park was amazing in the autumn light.  All the lakes covered with a green weed but far from detracting from the beauty it combined with the other greens of the trees to create almost unreal tones.  We saw the Dakota Building & John Lennon’s memorial in Strawberry Fields.

Also walked the High Line, a park created out of a raised disused railway line running through part of Manhatten, a great way to see unusual views of the city and a clever way of using what in some places would simply be seen as an eyesore.
Had dinner sitting outside at an Italian restaurant,  people watching.  New York really has a buzz about it.     


 
 
Romance in Central Park!
 

 
 
 
The power of advertising!
