tagged together in 65 photos nyc + skyline Pretty drive back to Manhattan. Back in baby's arms! Smell ya later, Manhattan. And managed to make it home before 2am! Long travel day! Eastward. ...says you're too tired to take the subway. ...and headed to the airport. They have a great roofdeck view. Landed at 8:30 and took a cab from the airport... ...and Peter drove us back to the city! Congrats Ellen & Hans! Spent Friday afternoon getting a really long three-hour reiki treatment. Snapped this pic of Union Square from 11 stories up before biking home. Happy November 2013! I can see my house from here. Not bad! On my way to LGA. ...before heading over to west side... Twilight skyline. Hard to tell from this photo, but in-person you can see the Manhattan skyline from Rockaway. By the early afternoon, we were back in NYC and crossing over the bridge on our way over to Caiti's apartment to pick up Maddy ! ...to this! I am a much better jetski driver than I am jetski rider. Every time there was a wave, I kept making little girly screams and yelling "Look out!" Sunset. Sunday bus ride home. What a fantastic month. Happy July 2011! ...you can see Manhattan in the distance? It drizzled rain for a bit... "Never has any sailor passed our shores in his black craft until he has heard the honeyed voices pouring from our lips, and..." "...once he hears to his heart's content, sails on, a wiser man." It's time to go home! Happy Birthday, Andrew! Thanks for all the great fun! Congrats to the winning team! While we waited for the horse to arrive at the hotel (he was being transported down to Manhattan from upstate via trailer), Klaus (the manager of the hotel at the time) took us up to the roof so we could see the totally surreal view from the glass-edged roof deck. Breathtaking! Nothing like spending a week in nature to make your home look like garbage! Haha. I still love you, New York Shit-tay! ...the sun is setting over the city. Kept getting better. Dramatic clouds and rays of sunshine over Manhattan in the distance. Got to the waterfront with plenty of time to relax before the show. We made it home a little after two. I took a shower and a quick nap and then... Monday was a little cloudy and overcast. In the afternoon we went over to Matt's apartment to hang out on his roof. It was a perfect early spring night and his building has an awesome roof deck. In a cab headed home at 6:30am! I dropped off my bag, took an hour nap and hot shower and then went to work! Home! Roof. We went to some party on the top floor of the hotel on Rivington. The northern view from the roof deck is really beautiful. Beautiful views of the city... View of Manhattan from the bridge. Spring nights on the roof are wonderful. ...to drink beers on the roof and enjoy the evening. Spring 2009 Family Portrait. The cold, clear and wonderfully bleak view from our living room window. The skyline to the north. I can see our house from here. Skyline north. Skyline south at sunset! The Soon-to-be Battjers! (I love this pic so much). "View of Manhattan skyline!" 5 POINTS! The East River seen from the Williamsburg Bridge. Sight for sore eyes! After traveling for a while, seeing the Manhattan skyline from the BQE is always one of my favorite things! The view of our neighborhood (the Lower East Side and the East Village) while crossing over the Williamsburg Bridge. Almost home! Home! The distant Manhattan skyline always looks so puny in pics taken on the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway. Check out the rad view of the Empire State Building from Josh's living room window. Check out the sick view of Manhattan from their balcony. And here's the view to the north. Woooo. ...and went up to the Observation Deck. Since deciding to move back to Texas, Tara had written up a "Things To Do Before I Leave New York" list and this was right up there at the top of it. Here's the view to the south. Tara posing for the obligatory "take my photo with New York in the background" photo. The view from out on my bedroom's fire escape. We didn't know what the fuck was going on. The WTC is like 15 blocks from where I work and I just kept thinking about how it was going to be weird to see the WTC buildings everyday with big holes in them.
