Susan at A Southern Daydreamer is hosting Outdoor Wednesday. Please visit her for lots of other outdoor posts.
These are some random pics that I took while visiting New York City. My sister wore a pedometer the entire time, and I claim all the miles she put on hers as my own since I was right there with her! We enjoyed seeing the city by taking the subway and getting off to walk and explore different areas. I think we saw lots more this way!
The first day we were there, we were in Chinatown.
City Hall in the Financial District
This store that advertised 18 miles of books reminded me of Sally at Smiling Sally. It was near Greenwich Village and the Lower East Side
St. Pauls across from the World Trade Center was unharmed on Sept. 11
A New York Apartment building in Greenwich Village
A bronze statue near the World Trade Center memorial
This building made me feel secure....it was located near the ferry to Liberty Island
A street scene near our hotel
We didn't have tickets for David Letterman-wish we had!
Hope you enjoyed the 'virtual walk' through NYC through the eyes of a first time visitor. We put lots of steps on the pedometer. I didn't really worry too much about what I ate and came back 2 pounds skinnier!
Thanks for stopping by today!

Good morning Diane, NY is one place you can walk for miles and enjoy every minute. You really covered some ground. I saw the Marquis for MAMMA MIA. When we (the five sisters) were in NY we saw the Broadway play. I know how much fun you had. Thanks for a fun post and all the great photos. Two pounds? You go girl.
Hugs...Jeanne
I'd love to go to NYC sometime soon in the future. All great pictures!

Wonderful Outdoor Wednesday post, Diane! I love all the photos!
I enjoyed all of your NY photos :) I went seven years ago and got to go to the Letterman show (he looks shorter in person)!
Hi Diane...I really enjoyed seeing your NYC photos...did you buy a Coach bag in China town in one of the "way in the back secret rooms"..? ;-) Bo
OK, that does it...New York City or bust!!!! :)
When I lived in Queens and worked in the city, I never had a weight problem. There was so much walking to do and you could get everywhere by walking!! Loved your pictures, thanks for sharing!
Hi Diane!
Fabulous photos of all our well know landmarks, and more! NYC sure isa walker town and you usually can get to a place faster than in a cab in traffic.
I didn't know Homeland Security had a headquatters near the SI Ferry .. it's been a few years since I've rode the ferry.
The Strand (giant bookstore) is a fun place to browse in -- it does have miles and miles of books!
I can't wait to meet you next time!
Hugs, Pat

Diane, Looks like you all had a great time! I haven't been to NY since I was 10 years old...time to go back, huh?
Hi Diane, thanks for sharing these great photos of your trip to NYC. I felt like I was right there having fun with you, except I don't have any exercise to show for it. LOL
Looks like a lot of fun, Diane! Great pics! So glad you had such a good time in the Big Apple. I love it SO much.
Happy Outdoor Wednesday...
XO,

Thanks for reminding me how much fun it is to visit New York. I haven't been in over 25 years and I think a return trip is in order lol. Great photos, especially love the shot of the Strand. Kathy
How fun, a trip to the big Apple!
Diane,
I am so enjoying your trip to NYC!
The statue by the WTC of the man with the briefcase made me want to cry~but that's good, we need to remember.
I am so happy you shared on OW!

NYC just provides constant entertainment when you're walking. Great pictures. I have a friend who was the priest at St. Paul's on 09/11. He has incredible stories to share! laurie
I just LOVE seeing all your wonderful pictures of NYC. It is making me REALLY want to go there. I plan to someday.
Hi Diane! Yes, I enjoyed my walk with you! I love New York. We were able to sit in on David Letterman's show. That guy is getting old! lol Oh, did you get to see 'Mama Mia'? Love that. I just love New York!!
Thank you so much for your kind words!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia;)
More BEAUTIFUL photos. I really hope to visit NY one day. Looks like a fabulous time was had by all. Thanks for dropping by my blog! Oh I *made* a cloche today and it didn't involve learning to blow glass. LOL
Wow, you covered a lot of turf!! Good for you. I've only even seen Letterman live once, and I work in the city almost every day...it was much fun. Maybe you can get stand-by tickets when you're in town next?
