I just got back from six days in NYC. Fell in love with it!
Six days is not enough to see everything!
And yet, even the cabbies said they loved NY, but wish they lived somewhere else.

Having worked in lower Manhattan and mid-town years ago, I can see how visitors would enjoy Manhattan. But it's not all there is to NYC. The drudge of commuting everyday and the privilege of paying a city income tax and sales tax does wear on the glamor. I'll visit (Manhattan) but I would never choose to live or work there.

Glad you enjoyed it. Sometimes I look around me and I still can’t believe I live here. It still has all its magic, plus now the special feeling of being home.
