The escalator leading up to the lobby of the hotel we stayed at; The Hudson. Modern, edgy, cheap, by Mahattan standards, not for the tall. Trust me, the rooms are so small it is comical.
The lighted floor of the restaurant, love the chairs.

One of the main reasons we always go to NYC. Theatre.
This shot is for Nic
I read the play at 17 and got a degree in Theatre because Shaffer seduced me with Equus.
I was passing the Mandarin Oriental Hotel when I stopped in my tracks. Look at this piece by Dale Chihuly
We did not get to photograph a lot of windows. We did catch Bergdorf's comical boxing polar bears.

The newly cleaned cealing, just look at beautiful glass.

I am in awe. Such eye candy! I never been to the big apple, hoping to take a bite out of it someday. Looks like a splendid time.
Ooooh. Aaaaah. Ohhhhhh.
Who are you kidding, the pictures are fabulous!
Thanks for sharing.
It's been too long since my last trip to NY.
OK, I'm going to have to stay at the Hudson next time. We stayed at the Gershwin the last two - also very cool, especially if you're a pop art fan, but we need something new.
And as for small? You should see some of the apartments I've lived in.
Though for hotel rooms, the smallest by far i've ever occupied was right outside the Vatican city wall in Rome. It was almost small enough to qualify as one of those japanese cubicles.
Ah...the Palm Court! I have eaten many a silver dish of strawberries with whipped cream there, chatting with my best friend. Sigh.
Yoli,
These pictures are awesome with your "little" camera! I used some on my blog! Gee maybe I should reconsider what camera I need to buy and get one that is consistently good.
Loved seeing you both.

Those are great photos, thank you for sharing. I miss New York too, it has been 13 years since I have made a trip there :-(.
Looks like a fabulous time was had by all! So glad you had this weekend!
Yoli!!!
Happy Birthday for tomorrow my friend!!!!!!
Don't you love NY?
We looked at those same windows. Tara and I photographed those same boxing polar bears. So much to see and do. Too many Broadway shows to catch.
Seems to me we should organize a week for blog chicks there.
What do you think????
I am glad you had such a fun time. You are right, a weekend isn't enough.
oxoxoxo
Bliss! Wow I'm jealous! I've been to NY but ws in my late teens and did not see it through your eyes. beautiful!
I loved these photos. I lived in the West Village years ago and your post awakened so many memories.
awwww! oh how i wish i could visit real soon! one my dreams :) but i was so happy to see ny through your beautiful pictures!
Thanks for taking us with you. Such great photos! And Equus, wow. That is an amazing play. I've never seen it performed, just read it.
You have to tell me what Thai restaurant you ate at! I have obviously never been to that one and we are trying to hit all the best ones!
my fave city. love it more than rome and paris. many have told me i was a new yorker in another life. i think they're right.
i miss nyc.
Aww you were right by my apt! So good to hear you had a great time!
Hi Yoli - I only had my little pocket camera in NY too. I'd brought both cameras to Philadelphia, but the night before we left Paris, I injured my shoulder moving furniture. So I left the best camera in Philadelphia. But I think we both got some pretty good shots with our little cameras! Glad you had a great time - and yes, a couple of days is never enough in New York! I lived there for eight years and still miss it. xoxox
Your pictures are amazing! Oh how I miss NY during the bustling holiday season.
