Sorry to take so long, but here they are...

For the first time in SimV history, you get to see me. Cool

Nice car (not mine or my uncle's)

"What is that?" (Me again)

I see you paid for your visit with a dog-walking job; very resourceful. Wink

You seem a little anxious about the subway... Grin

Try it sometime during rush hour during a heat wave in a car with inoperative AC... Undecided

On a more serious note: thank you for not smiling for a picture in front of The Pit, aka "Ground Zero"... that always makes me very angry. Why people think it's a place for a "smile,, everyone!" picture is beyond me, but many people seem to think it's appropriate.
I guess for some idiots, the world outside their home town is just a theme park of some kind. Roll Eyes

First of all, I never went on a subway while I was there (though I have in previous trips) I was just commenting on the way I looked in that pic.

And you are welcome, that event also meant a lot to me, and I agree that ground zero is a solemn site.

(By the way, the dogs are my uncle's, who is also in that picture)

I always like to see some real-life NY shots. Seems a hectic place.

In my country, a church like that would be quite a landmark, here it's almost considered a miniature building... kinda puts things in perspective...

And I do love the car... wish it was mine... Cool

It's absolutely insane around the holidays- too many tourists stumbling around! (sorry)

But it's a great place to visit!

I understand. Though it's hardly comparable, it's ike in my home-city Ghent. There are times that you trip over hordes of Japanese, German, American, tec tourists, all wandering around the center. The guides always seem to go straight trough my intended path, trying to hit me with their umbrella or flag.

There's only one thing worse than that... The weekend before Christmas and Newyear, walking in the shoppingstreets... it's hell on Earth I tell you!
