NYC - Central Park & Times Square

Last week Chris and I spent 5 days in NYC with students from his HS journalism class. The students spend half of the day going to seminars at Columbia University and the other half of the day site seeing in NYC. This was my 7th trip to NYC since first visiting there 8 years ago. I am definitely hooked!


The view out my window on the plane...

I could spend a whole day just taking photos of all the different signs in NYC...

We visited Central Park on Wednesday. It is definitely one of my favorite places to visit. Someday I will see the rest of the park (I think I've seen a little over half of it)...








Crocuses blooming in Central Park....


Bethesda Fountain Tunnel (previously home of Thoth and Pink Angel's prayformance. Sadly, they have moved on to LA, so we didn't see them this time.)....



One of my favorite things about NYC is all the randomness you see. This was a Michael Jackson impersonator performing at the entrance of a theater on 42ndStreet.

Times Squre - love the lights, all the chaos, and the energy!!

Speaking of randomness....this is the Naked Cowboy who performs in Times Square. I think I have seen him on every visit to NYC.
Jumbo-tron in Times Squre. If you look right below the yellow arrow (to the right of the "2") you can see Chris. He has a red coat on and has his hands up in the air. We are all standing in a group right below him.
