   I have not been in eight years . NYC is for me the proof that we can live together in Peace beyond religion and politics. A salad not a soup. An acceptance of our individual differences yet proudly a part of a whole. The world comes together in NYC.

   I agree with magicaleye (above), but what came to me most clearly when I read this, was striding through New York on a beautiful fall or spring day when the sky is clear and the air has equal parts warm and cold, on my way to make something happen (or see something happen) and feeling that rush that is so unique to this amazing city and the people that inhabit it.

   I haven’t been there for quite a while…but I think my favorite memory of The big apple was from highschool…it was my first real TRIP somewhere and my first flight on a plane – our art club put together a calendar of drawings we all did of historical buildings in the town and then sold it. Those of us who sold the most got to go on the trip. All I can say was that I didn’t want to go back! I wanted to stay in NYC and see more of the Met, more broadway shows, and more great food! It’s an exciting place

   Definitely the food, no wait the people or amazing architecture or The Park or cultural happenings or maybe it’s just the buzz of all these things that seems to just embrace your heart while there.

   The people, The Guggenheim, and the fact that Manhattancan can read my mind. Every time I’m in Manhattan and I think, “You know I’m really in the mood for…” I turn the corner and BAM there it is.

   I’ve been to NY but I have yet to see it~

   The first time I arrived via train Penn Station and I so wanted to race to the glass doors open them up just to view the sky scrapers if only for a moment.

   I never got the chance as I raced to the train that shuttled me off to Long Island.

   Someday~

   I love all of it!….I find myself on cultural overload while I am there. I have to do MOMA, The Guggenheim, The Metropolitan Museum of Art… Rockefeller square at Christmas time is amazing. Ice skating in Central Park even the tourist trap
   horse & buggy rides (did the latter two with my grand kids it was great!) Not to mention all the things you happen into by accident. Many many years ago when we were there, we took a walk around the block to see the Waldorf Astoria and ended up standing on the edge of the red carpet for the after party for the
   Tony Awards!

    There’s so much to do and see and engage with + it’s easy to get around on foot or by subway or cab. It’s probably as close to one of the great old European cities as America’s got, but with more energy and activity than any of them. It’s the cultural center of America and in many ways of the world and has been for a over a century.

    Starting the day with a jog in Central Park. While walking back to hotel, grab a coffee and bagel from street vendor. If I do that, most anything else is icing as long as it includes food and art.
