New York, New York

Yankee Stadium In Winter

Is a wonderful town. The Bronx is up and the Battery's down. The people ride in a hole in the ground. New York, New York! Ah, back home.

We usually rent a car at La Guardia and drive over to New Jersey where my sister lives. It's always been expensive but this year the price of a Toyota Corolla (little) for three days was $500. Not paying it. We were going to take the bus to Penn Station and the commuter train to my sister's town but my nice brother-in-law sent over a car service. I'm always the one who drives this route and never get to take pictures out the window.

Above, Yankee Stadium from across the Harlem River. Below, crossing the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge, or just RFK Bridge, from Queens to Manhattan. The sign is local New York code - 8 minutes drive from that point to the George Washington Bridge that goes to New Jersey, via Manhattan and the Harlem River Drive. You could go via The Bronx and the Major Deegan Expressway but I wouldn't recommend it.                 

Bottom, your airport moment of zen.
