a trip to new york city


Dear Grandad
As you know , Hatty and I have just been to New York for a work research trip. It was great, lots of ideas and inspiration..here are a few pictures from our trip. The Guggenheim museum of art...such an amazing building..
A fountain in Central Park
I loved it in the park, hard to believe that you're in the middle of such a busy noisy city
We had a coffee on the 35th floor of the Mandarin Hotel...this is the view
over the park..all of the trees were stunning in the sunshine
A 2cv in New York!!..not a common site


Hatty on the Staten Island ferry to see the Statue of Liberty.
This is the view looking back at Manhattan island from the Staten island ferry...we passed the Statue of Liberty but were moving too fast for photos..
A view of the Empire State Building
Hatty dancing by the Flatiron building

This is Times Square
I hope you are well...look forward to seeing you soon
