There's something about the vitality of New York City - it's alive, dynamic, caught up with, energizing; it just snatches you.
I was staying right in mid-town Manhattan and took off for a stroll down to Times Square. There were individuals all around, and the surge of boosts was entirely overpowering - bulletins, lights, blaring, only an inconceivable measure of movement.
Crossing the road was an enterprise in itself. As a Canadian, I have a tendency to take after the standards and comply with the movement signals. At the point when the little person says walk, I walk. What's more, when he holds up his hand, I stop. Not the situation in Manhattan. At the littlest break in movement - even 50 yards or so - individuals would dash out to cross.
Thus I stood, embracing the check and sitting tight for the "walk" flag, and observed these close misses of individuals nearly getting hit via autos and trucks.
Taking the metro to a Yankees diversion in the Bronx was another enterprise. I knew this may be my last opportunity to see them play in their old stadium. Up in the inside field grandstands, famous for especially rambunctious fans, the show in the stands was more stimulating than the one on the field. Fans applauded and sang the names of the players until the players recognized them, and afterward the cheering broke out. New Yorkers have such enthusiasm and vitality for their group, for their diversion and for the stadium.
