Thought I'd take a trip to NYC during reading week. So I booked a cheap trip on Megabus and had a great experience.

Unfortuently, the first day there wasn't cooperating weather wise so there aren't many pics from that day expect from the ferry. However, the second day was beautiful and couldn't ask for more.

Enjoy!

The Full Set
 
Great shots. You have photographed so many areas that I've never seen before.
 
Good Manhattan pics!

Smuncky: Good pics from your visit to Manhattan-I take it for granted sometimes living in the area but on a day like today-the weather was a little cool but other then that it was near-perfect-St.Patrick's Day-I watched the entire NYC Parade on 5th Avenue along Central Park beginning around noon and ending around 5:30 to 5:45PM.

I am now in the Apple Store at the corner of 5th Avenue and 59th street posting this reply-it's pretty busy as usual but you can't beat the hours:
24/7/365 as noted on the house web page. One thing to remember: If you go online there they usually shut down most of the computers towards 1AM to keep the homeless at bay among other things. Early in the morning at around 7AM they are open for use again.

It was a really nice St.Pat's Day in the City that never sleeps...LI MIKE
 
Those photos all look 'professional' in a good way. (and what a great city).

thanks.
