Travel Chaotically! - New York - Street Fair and Central Park


On day 4 of our stay, we woke to the knowledge that just the day prior some freak had tried to kill and maim with bombs set off in NJ and on streets we had just walked.  But on the way to The MET....



Uptown, downtown!  I got this!

...we found a street fair on Lexington!!  With Jerk chicken, rice and beans that were tasty....and the best Empanada I have ever eaten!!!

Food and products from all parts of the globe...

...enjoyed by all sorts of peeps....


...and kids....

...of every stripe!!!

With many interesting items!!!





Diversity and cute pinkness makes every girl want to twirl!!

Posh streets and hotels as we walked on toward central park....



We ended the day with a lucky turtle!!  On the following day, we took a nice walk through the drizzle to a big breakfast at a typical NY diner before taking more trains back out to the airport for our flight to Paris.  Thanks, New York!  You lived up to every description of the wonder of the Big Apple and Lady Liberty....“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses, yearning to breathe free,” welcoming folks of every type...including a girl from Alabama/Tennessee! Take that, crazy man trying to hurt and frighten folks in NJ and NY!!  They (and we) are bigger and better than any meanness or horror you can try to create!  I look forward to my next visit!!  Still need to check out Harlem, The Bronx and some Singapore noodles!!!
 'Til next time, New York - c
