  1. It’s interesting to hear your impressions as you come visit my home country. FYI: New York City is one of my least favorite places I’ve visited. But I’m told it has improved some since I was there in the ’80s.

  2. You two looked sooo cold!!!! But it sounds like you are having an adventure for sure and this month’s bom you did–Patience–it seems you are practicing that one–with the long waits!!!
    enjoy, di

  3. So glad you’re enjoying your visit to NYC!! Hubby and I served in the U.S.Army in NYC in the mid-70’s, and loved our time there. If you think the view from the top of the Empire State building is high, you should have seen it from the Twin Towers when they were there!! We were actually still inside the building, and looked out to see helicopters flying LOWER than we were! Talk about WOW!!! If you get a chance to see the Radio City Music Hall Rockettes, that’s a great remembrance of the city as well. Because we were in the service, we could go to the USO and get free tickets to see the Rockettes and some off-Broadway shows. Great fun! Of course, that was 45+ years ago, so I’m sure lots has changed, but probably a lot is the same. Enjoy yourself!!!

  4. Living here in the US it was fun to read your view of things. I don’t like big cities or crowds so have not been there. I would like to see it without the crowds! LOL Nancy

  5. Your cheeks in the photo said it all Joy, bitterly cold. What a great adventure. Look forward to seeing more photos. X

  7. Love your photos, and comments, look forward to reading more about your trip. Hope I can do as well in, well in not so long now.

  8. Wow, the view is amazing & glad to see you went up & took some photos. Somewhere I’ll never get to, so thanks for taking us along. Look forward to seeing Central Park. At least that’s at ground level. (lol). Enjoy & take care.

  9. How exciting to visit NYC and see all the famous places for real. I’m enjoying tagging along with you from my arm armchair in Oz.

  10. Lived outside of DC for 23 years and never made it up to the top of the Washington Monument and waved at family who were at the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Pretty sure that I will never make it to the top of the Empire State Building.
    I will enjoy your photos!!!!!!!!
