New York At Night

Description

New York is such a large and beautiful city. It’s a city that should be seen not only from ground level, but from high above as well. And, well…that’s what we did. I’m usually so hesitant about going on ANYTHING that’s more than two stories high…but everyone coaxed me into going onto the top of the Empire State building. They said you couldn’t have the “complete New York experience” without doing it. After an hour and a half of waiting to get on some crowded stuffy elevator with people I didn’t know. And immediately—gravity, or the lack of gravity hit me. I felt like I had been drugged on medications…I did –not- like being that high up off the ground.

But as soon as the cold New York air hit me at 85 stories above the ground, my eyes widened. New York was…so beautiful at night! It was almost as beautiful as that painting “The Starry Night”…even though there were no stars visible—the lights of the city and the skyscrapers and advertisements from the city below were the stars. It was…breathtaking.
