Face in shadow between two buildings near the Houston St M5 bus stop.

Suzan digs for her notebook on the bus.

Chain store outpost near West 18th St.

Hints of the Empire State Building above the close skyline of buildings.

Notes in progress.

A building with 4 distinct layers of style.

Buildings of glass loom above in Midtown.

It's Christmas in Midtown.

The edge of Central Park is a wall of green.

Down at street level I've never experienced this feeling of open green space in New York.

Beautiful building...

...with a McDonald's being built across the street.

Trees hanging over the road in Riverside Park.

Sabor Latino near 175th St. Those are chickens roasting in the window.

Mmmmm, chicken.

A delicious meal of roast chicken, sweet plaintain, beans and rice.

George Washington Bridge from Washington Heights.

The subway takes us home faster than the bus, but the scenery isn't as nice.

Somehow Washington Square Park seems more like home after going so far north.
