Very eerily cool



Snapped this picture from high up in the McCann-Erickson building.

Kinda like a classic sci-fi movie poster.

Outside Dave's place



Just thinking of all the thousands of stars that have been inside.

Early Sunday evening in Times Square




Quite a fantastic place when the neon lights and LED screens kick in.

Just a mad crush of people everywhere.

Oddly soothing and exhilarating all at once.

One of my favorite sidewalk signs



It's for a little diner on 45th Street (between 2nd and 3rd avenues).

A wee piece of 50s nostalgia.

The Amish Market in full swing



Ordered a lovely grilled chicken and caramelized onion pizza last night.

It was prepared super fresh with wholesome ingredients and baked in a brick oven. Very cool.

Most delicious thing I've chomped in quite some time.

A yummy next-door cafe



What better thing to do than sit in a cafe on a rainy New York Saturday.

Listening to the 'Noo Yoikers' squabble over baseball results and parking meters.

Love this place!

Pee

PS - Note the name on the marquee, Dad.

It's raining today



And the spring daffodils on Park Ave are saying 'thanks' for the drink.

Pee

It still makes me go 'aaah'



Reckon it's my favourite building in the city.

Yes, there are bigger ones. Newer ones. More famous ones.

But there's something about the Chrysler building I just love.

In memory of Lily



Our much-loved cat who passed away on Friday.

She was a quirky, sweet thing who brought much joy to our house.

And kept me company all day when working from home.

She will be missed.

Also sending love to her brother, Bang.

Rugby - almost



Watched Utah play BYU on cable last night.

Was kinda weird to see rugby being played on telly.

A few token Australasian ex-pat 'big boys' delivering some much-needed staunch.

Other than that?

Let's just say that none of the lads were knocking on the door of Super 14 selection.
