Taking people places. This subway runs above ground for a few blocks before going underground again.

The train came from this station pictured here on 125th Street in Harlem.

First Snow Storm in the City

I like the snow when I’m watching it from the comfort of my home. Otherwise, I don’t like it much. It’s a pain for me to travel in it, like today. Today, I took the bus and the train. The bus sucked. It was late and when it finally arrived, just before it got to my bus stop, it got stuck on the bottom of the hill. Another bus got into a traffic accident. Eventually, a third bus came along and I was able to get on it.
After my bus ride, I took the train and managed to take these photos. The lady in the first photo just missed her train. She could only watch it leave without her.

In the meantime, the snow started to come down harder and faster.

Despite the snowy weather, thankfully, the trains seemed to run better than the buses.
Thanks, Amy of The Heart of a Seed for passing along this award. In turn, I’d like to pass it to all you lovely bloggers reading this post right now. I so enjoy your lovely blogs. Thank you!

A minute before: A train on the opposite side left the station. During rush hour, the station is pretty busy.

Beautiful New York

A minute before these photos: A happy group — adults and children — walked towards me. They were talking and laughing and the kids ran up and down the sidewalk in front of their parents. When the group saw me taking photos they stopped and two of them (the men) took out their cameras. I heard them speak Italian and so I asked the man with the camera closest to me where they were from.
"Venice," he told me.
"Beautiful Venice," I sighed.
"New York is beautiful, too." He told me as he started clicking away at his camera.
I had to agree with him.
