New York, New York!
When I think New York, I think Sex and the City, Empire State Building, big yellow taxis with rude drivers and Saks 5th Avenue.Only because I am planning a visit there (extending my stay after a working trip to Atlanta) did I realized that Manhattan is actually an island and is a sprawling, confusing mass of different sections. Downtown, midtown, upper east side, lower east side, upper west side...with "boroughs" ie, kampungs/outskirts like Queens and Brooklyn located on the mainland.
Now I understand why Miranda (from Sex and the City) was so reluctant to move to Brooklyn despite the cheaper rents, a quieter lifestyle and more room for their family. It's something like 20 subway stops and at least 3 subway changes (my estimate) into central Manhattan where the party is!!
The different sections of New York City
NYC subway tracks, look to me like multi-colored snakes!I can't wait to go! I just hope I don't get too lost in the big, big city! Now's that's scary, and yet, at the same time exciting...
