Our instructions said to get off the bus at 42nd and 6th. We have been to San Francisco many times. This did not prepare us for the people, traffic, hustle, noise we faced when we got off of the bus. Eeeeek!!!!! It was overwhelming.
The first thing we looked for was something familiar, so we made a bee line for McDonalds. We encountered a huge line and once we had our food, discovered there were three floors of dining tables. So much for the cozy comfort of the familiar.
We wandered around with our eyes and mouths wide open in astonishment. Soon, however, it started to be a little bit of fun to recognize street and building names. Landmarks we'd seen in movies and on tv came into view as we wandered about. You must realize that much of what we know about New York City we learned watching Law and Order. Hmm....we passed some out of the way bushes in Bryant Park....a possible location for a body?
Robert is walking up 42nd. The Chrysler building is the one with the pointed top.
The Chrysler building is all private offices so you can not see much, except for the lobby. It is an art decco dream. Here are a couple of the elevator doors.
We saw a street sign for Park Ave....that sounded famous.
Times Square
