"One belongs to New York instantly, one belongs to it as much in five minutes as in five years."
~ Thomas Wolfe ~
I was lucky during September of 2010 as I was able to spend twelve days in NYC. The first five days we (myself and a good friend) were participants of a most excellent "Fall Garden Tour" organized by the Calgary Zoo and Botanical Gardens. Thereafter, our husbands joined us, for another six days of exploring 'the City'.

I wonder if perhaps, being an outsider, I have a rather 'romantic' view of the city, but then, that can not be all that bad; can it?
