Wow James. Very impressive pictures!!! New York City is a gorgeous city during the holidays, especially Christmas.
I'm glad you had a great time in my hometown. I just wish I were here in NYC when you came over. It would've been nice to meet up and show you around my neighborhood.
I see you came through the Lincoln Tunnel, I give birth (it’s a joke LOL) going through it every time I get out of New York. I’m surprised they didn’t in trouble for taking pictures in the tunnel. They would’ve locked my a** up for weeks (I’m an Arab after all).
I’m glad you took the subway, it’s a New York experience. It’s the only way to get around in Manhattan. A lot of people don’t know how to navigate the Subway system the first time they use it, but then it becomes easy after a while. Did you get lost or worst yet, robed (
)?
Did you get to see Maybach’s and Phantoms in Midtown Manhattan? Did you visit the Mercedes show room on Park Avenue? It's across the street from the Ferrari/Maserati showroom.
I see you were in Lower Manhattan. You would have LOVED the view from top of the WTC towers. Did you also visit China Town and Little Italy?
Did you get to go to other boroughs? Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, or the Bronx? There are many other sites to see out there. You should’ve taken a walk over the Brooklyn Bridge, very nice view of Manhattan from there, to Brooklyn Heights and Dumbo.
Overall, I think you seen most tourist destinations, but it would have been nice to see the ordinary neighborhoods. Maybe next time I’ll show you around
Oh as for those NYC Taxies, it seems as though they're slowly replacing them big V8 Crown Vic’s with Hybrids. Mostly Toyotas Camrys/Prius/Highlanders/Lexus RX, but there are a few Fords and other manufacturers.
PS
My guess is that you took this picture from the south side of the Empire State Building. If the picture was a little higher up, you could see my neighborhood
