Look!

Traveling to the Professional Development day in Brooklyn I was able to catch the N train. Yes! It's express and so much faster than the R but then everything is so much faster than the R! The other joy of traveling on the N is that it goes over Manhattan Bridge so one gets to be in the daylight for a short while.
Some people make the most of the time in so far as using their cell phones. Checking messages and seemingly telling their loved ones they'll be home soon or later or whatever.

But it would seem that some people cannot even find the enthusiasm to even look up let alone look out the window of the train. The wonderful view that one gets as one travels across the Manhattan Bridge is a great view of the Brooklyn Bridge.


I love the view- it doesn't matter whether it is day or night, sunny or cloudy, raining or merely misty the Brooklyn Bridge dominates the view and is such a strong symbol of New York City. If it's a crisp clear day one can even see the Statue of Liberty. But perhaps people on their way to work on Thursday morning just couldn't see beyond the prospects for their day but for me it was a grand start to the day.
