Had a really incredible adventure – 9 days in San Francisco and 5 days in New York – home now – lovely and fresh and green back here in Donegal, but a wee bit chilly in comparison to the near tropical heat in New York! Thanks 🙂
I was married to a former New Yorker (RIP) and after one wedding in July told the whole family that I’d never set foot in NYC from July-August so nobody better die or get married at that time…. I had ot wear a damn silk dress. Showered, put on a slip (NYCers recommended) and walked out side and looked like I’d stepped out of the shower! Wet dog….
Oh dear! Yes it was hot and sweaty – tropical sticky heat. And I walked miles. I was in Venice in August , swore never again – hit and packed and smelly 🙂
Many good photographs but wouldn’t swap our rural Oregonian vistas for them! 😉
Did you see the 4th fireworks anywhere? NYC is supposed to be a good show.
Yes! From my bedroom window 🙂 Amazing 🙂 And the local firecrackers were EXTREMELY loud!!!
I’m glad. I should have told you where to go to eat — the best delis. Crap. If you are near Zabars stick your head in — USA’s version of Harrods.
Great shot of Guggenheim and its addition. I was there when it was being built. Hope you have a great time in my old home town.

No? I wouldn’t swap rural Donegal either! But it was fantastic for an exhilarating few days 🙂
