You can't visit New York and not go to the top of the Empire State building. We started the day with a trip around Manhattan on one of those hop on hop off buses. They give you a feel for the city and an orientation lesson as well as a glimpse at all those iconic buildings. None more so than the Empire State building.
After the tour we made our way to the ESB prepared to join a long queue but to our delight we were able to go straight in and had a clear view of the amazing art deco interior.
Very scary looking down. If fact I couldn't do it so just hung the camera over the edge to take this one.

 I took a ridiculous number of photos from the top but here are just a few. |

Neat pictures! I especially enjoyed the one of the bustling city down below. :-)
ReplyDeleteNever been there in fact never been to NY only transited trough the airport. I presume you knees went wobbly on the top then.
ReplyDeleteAmazing how high up you are, isn't it. It is almost you have a look from a plane over the city.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you are having a good trip. I used to travel to New York for work every month and I had a vendor that had the entire 70th floor of the Empire State building. That was always a fun appointment.
ReplyDeleteLooking down from the Empire State building I thought the cars looked like ants !
ReplyDeleteI can understand why you took so many pics .... the view from the top is amazing.
ReplyDeleteI can't look at the ESB without thinking of 'An Affair to Remember'! AND I'd be too gutless to look over the edge too ...
ReplyDeleteThose are some amazing views!!! I definitely want to go up there some day!
ReplyDeleteWow you went up both.
