My brother, sister-in-law and two friends recently visited us in NYC. We spent 5 days on a very rapid tour of the city and boroughs.

It says toilet on the Concorde. Hee hee heee!
By the way, whe we were at the Intrepid, Lynrd Skynrd was playing in the main hall. We could hear it up on the deck. Surreal. Play Feebird.

Love these pictures, especially the frog, the Chrysler building (can that Buck Rogers spire ever look bad?) and the water towers. And at least there are stains on the Concorde's toilet services panel, that would have been a touch of reality best left undocumented.

EvilGentleman: 16th Mar 2006 - 05:08 GMT

That was a typo. At least there were no stains... sheesh!

Incredible photographs. We do live in a spectacular city, don't we?

elaine: 16th Mar 2006 - 14:23 GMT

i like the whole group together, it makes a nice docco

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: 16th Mar 2006 - 15:00 GMT

It's fun living in New York and also being a tourist guide. It gives you a whole new perspective on this fabulous place.

elaine: 16th Mar 2006 - 15:07 GMT

i'm the same with london. and people can tell, because i tend not to get mad drunk people in the street, but get a lot of direction askers

EvilGentleman: 16th Mar 2006 - 17:10 GMT

Sometimes I see tourist documentaries about Montreal, and I see a bunch of things I never knew existed! Funny how things can become invisible when you pass them every day.

GGP: 16th Mar 2006 - 20:23 GMT

great, eclectic tour. every tour should have at least one frog!

Jackie: 17th Mar 2006 - 00:30 GMT

Thanks for the tour of the city that I live in but don't get to see!
Hope you're having a great visit with your family.
