It’s so much faster when you drive there… early.
May 30.
These are among the world’s most expensive billboards.
Through the tunnel.
I believe they call this contrast.
The angel atop the fountain.
Pete, and more contrast.
There were a fair number of people relaxing in the park.
When we left there was no traffic to speak of.
It was a nice day, and we got home quickly.
And Frisbee Is Life.
May 25.
It’s all about the frisbee.
He never lets it out of his sight.
May 24. NYLUG Day.
Unexpectedly, I was able to get away and into the city early.
All such trips start with the train.
A World Trade Center story.
A fenceful of commemorative plaques.
And still more plaques.
A view of The Village.
I would have thought caffeine would drag the whole thing out.
Those bastards!
They chopped off the lower half of Superman!
14th Street, Union Square.
This must be the way to NYLUG …
The penguins are going this way.
Jim opened the NYLUG meeting about Xen.
Moshe Barr spoke, …
… then Ian Pratt.
Central Park.
We entered the city via the Midtown Tunnel.
The day started out sunny.
Today was a holiday, but I don’t know what.
Pete told me not to take photos of his ass.
So of course I did.
As we passed through the park, Pete molested the cat.
Video of him climbing down the hill in his rollerblades would have been even more amusing.
No visit to the city is complete without encountering an alien.
When it was time to leave, there wasn’t much traffic.
We passed by the CitiGroup Building. It would have fallen down in high winds had the architect not realized this when construction was nearing completion.
By the time we got out of there, it was not so nice a day anymore.
And then we passed the other Citi building. One wasn’t enough.
(actually I think it used to be the Traveller’s Building before the buyout)
