Greenwich Village Tile Tribute

ASSI - We came upon this beautiful display of tiles that are a tribute to the victims of 9/11 while riding through Greenwich Village in New York City. Each tile was individually painted by a-love-one of a World Trade Center worker. The Downtown and Uptown city gray line bus tour afforded us an opportunity to appreciate the various creative expressions featured throughout the city, and Gray Line Tours is a great way to get around the city while visiting for a week or weekend. On a cold November weekend, all bundled up for an up top ride of a Double Decker bus, the tiles were a burst of energy, and the colors jumped out at me. The reason alone was enough to capture this shot, plus it is a nice piece of art that is worth sharing. If you are familiar with tile tribute, we would love for you to share your thoughts. As I see it, when and if you visit Greenwich Village, you must locate the tiles.

Brooklyn At Night

ASSI - A night tour of New York City is a lightful treat, especially the Brooklyn Bridge. A Gray Line bus tour is the best way to see the city. You can hop-on and hop-off for two days, except the night tour. As we walk along Church Street after exhausting ourselves on Canal Street, we were looking for the next subway stop when we happened upon a tour bus. It was 7:30 p.m. and we were on the last bus headed across the Brooklyn Bridge , the night tour is approximately 2 hours starting at 6:00 p.m. We were inspired by the night images that we decided to end the tour at the Empire State Building to really appreciate the sparkles of the lights. As I see it there are experiences in life we must have and seeing New York City at night is definitely one of them. Tours are good for historical content, which is always useful trivia information.

ASSI - While enjoying a wonderful exploration of the big city, the tour guide was providing useful tip information. One of the sights on the route was the exclusive address of the stars. According to the tour guide two very famous men call this building home, one is married to the gorgeous Catherine Zeta Jones and the Hottest Chick in the game wears the others chain are neighbors. Right about the leaves is where these two men reside when living in the city. We are unsure of there is any validity to the tour guide stories but nonetheless they were entertaining and worth a snap shot. As I see it a city tour is always enlightening and should be experienced, just in case there is a hint of truth to the confessions of the tour guides.
