Top of NYC

After 3 years, I am back on top of Empire State Building, the tallest building of NYC, this time with my parents.

After spending some time off with Family in Seattle at my cousins place, I am back in NJ. As usual it's always raining in Seattle, but that couldn't stop us from having fun. The main attraction Mount Rainier in Seattle closes in early October, apart from this there isn't much to see, especially on a short trip like ours.
So, we rented a big 7 seater to fit everyone and visited places around. It was nice to see people in Christmas mood already; this is my first Christmas outside India and It will be all together different experience here in US.

Back in NJ, I am trying to make the trip of my parents, a fun trip. So, I took them to NYC and on top of the tallest building of NYC. Unfortunately, it was very cold and windy. Fortunately, our Hop On Hop Off bus was covered unlike others, so it was a bit of satisfaction.

Here's the beautiful NYC from top of Empire State Building.

My turn !!!!

It's my turn for vacations...yippppiiieeeeeee

Don't know after how long I am going on vacation, though it was only in starting of this year that I took vacations, but not for enjoyment. And it's not really a vacation when you don't take it for enjoyment. My turn has come and I will be flying all the way to Seattle to meet my parents, as they land there in few hours !!!!!!!

I am all excited and pumped to see them after so many months and all excited to roam be sleepless in Seattle. LOL

I plan to take lots of shots, I am coming Seeeeaaaaattle !!!!!

Below is a shot from Giant Steps, Palisades, the place I went for hiking few weeks back. I found out there were couple of good shots. And some of them can be made better by cropping unnecessary stuff. I used to believe that cropping is not good and one should shoot in such a manner that cropping is not required. But the more I explore the more I learn.
