Walk The (High) Line

The High Line is a mile-long, elevated linear park built on the site of the former New York Central Railroad. A fantastic place for a stroll with views down onto the Meatpacking District and Chelsea.

You probably did not notice - given my sporadic posting of late - that I sneaked away to Iceland the past couple of weeks. WOW! That is one BEAUTIFUL country! I have almost 2500 photos to sort through from my trip and loads from New York to still show you.... so watch this space!
