Norman got up early, made coffee and had breakfast with me. A generous send-off on the second-to-last leg of my journey!
The D.C. NYC corridor is very familiar to me; I have driven this road scores of times and sometimes feel it I could do it half-asleep. This time, however, the road was foggier than I ever remember.
Beyond Maryland, this is the Delaware Memorial Bridge – what little you can see of it, at least.
The road in front of Newark airport, in NJ, is always distracting.
Driving toward the Lincoln Tunnel in NJ, you can see the Empire State Building in the distance.
Closer to the tunnel, there’s a great view of Manhattan’s skyline. This terrible picture shows the top of the Rosie the Riveter “We Can Do It!” postcard in my pocket!
Going into the Lincoln Tunnel.
In Manhattan, crossing 42nd St on 9th Ave. Back in New York City. Whenever you return from being away, the energy of this amazing place hits you in the most palpable way.
Hell’s Kitchen.
Behind Lincoln Center – almost home!
Parking next to the Dakota apartment building, in front of which John Lennon was shot 27 years ago, on December 8, 1980. As in Chicago, I found a great spot available virtually only to those in Minis – pedestrians were interested to see if I’d fit.
I got back to my apartment and was greeted by the view out the window at the Apple Bank Building and the Ansonia. It felt great to be home.
The best sunset since California!
