New York City 2008

Empire State BuildingLast monday was the day of my return from the Big Apple a.k.a. New York. It was a 7 day (5 nights) trip the the wonderful city of New York. The weather was great, and the company was even better :-P .

The holiday had a bit of a slow start, because we missed the plane (my bad), but, with a four hour delay, we finally got underway. As usual, plane trips suck bigtime. Cramped seats, and no sleep.

When we arrived we got our NY City Passes + 3 day bus tickets. This way, we got discounts (or even free entrance) at sightseeing. After all, we're still Dutch ;-) .

During the 6 days we saw it all (well, almost....);

  • Empire State Building
  • Central Park
  • The Financial District (Lower Manhattan)
  • Rockefeller Center
  • Fifth Avenue
  • China Town
  • Little Italy
  • Brooklyn Bridge
  • Brooklyn
  • Chrysler Building
  • Grand Central Station
  • Tudor City
  • United Nations Building
  • B&H Photo and Video :-P
  • Saint Patrick's Cathedral
  • Saint Thomes Church
  • Trinity Church
  • New York Police Museum

We even visited the theater on Broadway. The show we saw was a comedy (not a musical!!!) on 48th street called 'The 39 Steps'. A play by 4 actors playing over 150 characters.

During this stay I shot nearly 500 photographs. Some of those can be found on my flickr page.
