New York - A Place I Never Tire Of New York is fantastically vibrant, energetic and multi-cultural cities. There is never a shortage of things to do and people watching. New York is one of my favorite places to eat. I often plan my trips to New York around restaurants.
I love almost everything about New York. I say almost because we had our wallet stolen once and we experienced horrible service at the airport on another occasion. However, I still love this city and I know I'll be back.
I've already been there seven times and only one of those times was for work! |
|  | Evolution of a tourist in NY When I first visited NY, I... - Would get tense when the taxi driver took up two lanes - Smiled at people in the subway - I carried a subway map and read the signs to see where to get off - Strolled through the subway stations - Wore white - Enjoyed visiting times square
Today, New York is a city I feel pretty comfortable visiting and it usually only takes me a few minutes to adjust and take on the city vibes. Now, I... - Race out of the subway station - Cross the street as I please - Don't look at people on the subway train - Wear dark colors - Never go near Times Square - Hang out in SoHo and Brooklyn - Go jog in Central Park - Eat dinners at 11 p.m. |
|  | What I love about NY - Sunday brunch - Diversity of people - Energy 24/7 - The New York attitude - Fantastic cuisine - Even more fantastic desserts - Central Park - Marches at Union Square - The Met - Everything about SoHo - Hole in the wall restaurants - Subway system - Liberal - People watching - Show off factor - Walking city - Warm summers and thunderstorms - Independent city - The Clintons - Business center - Fashion - History and art - Strength and character - Great place for photography
and much, much more! |

BeatChick Tue Feb 24, 2009 07:08 UTC We visited Billy's Bakery, too, on our first (& only) trip to NYC. A friend steered me here for the mini cheesecakes but we were enthralled by the cupcakes. Did you know Billy (now Lauren) once baked for Magnolia Bakery??? |
