Doesn't look like New york, right? well the inside of a nice french hotel...

some more French atmosphere...

Remember that hall from the movie ?

and after a great night sleep, nothing is better than to start with a great breakfast.

I love the size of the beds here!

Overview over Central Park

just before New York wakes up.... wait a minute, NYC never sleeps!

impression of a reflexion in the building next door

I asked where the horses stay and I got the answer that they live only 10 blocks away..but wait; there isn't any farm or grass?!?? no he said, they live in a building with airconditioner and elevator!! never found out if it was trye or a joke (NY-humor)

in the middle of the city: beautiful green with forest, lakes, squirls..

view from Central Park

contrast between nature and modern buildings

Columbus circle; litteraly.. can you see the circle around Columbus?

From Africa to America...

Always appreciate that I have a "home"

love the different types of architecture here.

huge!!

it is a museum now but pretty impressive (the dimensions)

Dalailama conference New York

Sun rises between the skyliner

My "garden" view.. so beautiful to see green in the middle of the town!

and focus on the good things you have!!!

New York road...

It is going to be a sunny day....

Did I tell you that there are soooooooooo many people walking in NYC?!? Very anonymous town but you can always get a smile if you send one out :)

outside of church

Loved sneeking into different churches to have a look on a rainy day-shopping tour

Every time I walk around in town, I am amazed by the dimensions and architecture of the buildings

The church itself is huge but with the building behind, it appears small

just a "simple" door

"tete a tete" the old and new.

Everyone stops here to take a picture of that huge art-mirror and guess what?!? yes, I did too... can you find me? (hint: I am standing behind that lady in red that is in front of me... should be easy now:) )

What is that?!?!?

another decoration on a door (looked really shinny in the sun)

...ups, it turned into a rainy day!

Jose... ok forgot his last name

Now some pictures of the beautiful central Park..

A squirrel in the Central Park. Well, it is fall here and important to collect nuts (I found an easier way through Costco)

what a great view and way to get up in the morning!!
