Yet another beautiful walk. The High Line is amazing, the Bahntrassen I know in Germany aren’t half as cool. (You can bike on those, though.) Further content in this post: a horse, a squirrel & (*snicker*) Gay Street.

There’s not that much to say about this post. Except: there are three squirrels! Two of them alive.

Those fire escapes! One of my big obsessions besides water tanks and neon signs.

Be careful: there’s an incredibly kitschy sunset and the end of this post.

Back to the Met, and this time not only for the roof. That place is huuuuuuge. I have never been so exhausted by a museum. In a good way.

(Those Egyptian statues with missing or broken noses … I cannot stop thinking of this.)

Day number two. Halloween (as you might notice in a few photos). Another very long walk. Two ice skating rinks (one at Bryant Park, one at Rockefeller Center). So many neon signs and lights.

Just have a look at the amount of pictures and maybe you’ll feel as overwhelmed as we did standing in the middle of all that.

Okay, here’s day number one. The weather was great and we lived close to Central Park, so we took a long (really long) walk through the park, fell in love with every squirrel, gazed at every dogwalker (they’re real!) and hurried through the Met just to go up the roof. (We came back a few days later for an appropriate visit, though.)

As you might have noticed I’m not very good at posting my traveling photos. I can’t decide which ones I want to post, how I should organize them, how I want to postprocess them … and then I realize ten months later that there’s still quite a lot I want to show you from Iceland, for example.

I spent the last week in New York City and I took tons of photos (I even have some kind of blister on my finger from carrying the camera around all the time) and I don’t want the same to happen to those. So I decided I will post lots of them, chronologically, day for day and in the exact order I took them. And as I love looking out of airplane windows, that’s what I’m gonna start with.

Some of the latest pictures from my VSCO grid before I’m gonna flood this blog with photos from New York.

Okay, ich versuch mal was Neues. Ich schreibe was. Das passiert hier ja eher selten. Es passiert aber auch selten, daß ich innerhalb eines relativ kurzen Zeitraums gleich drei tolle Kulturveranstaltungen besuche, die ich dann auch noch für empfehlenswert halte. Also los. (Und keine Sorge, ein paar Fotos sind auch dabei.)

(I’m sorry this is in German. When I go back to writing less than three sentences in a blogpost, I’ll switch to English again.)
