This huge fire truck had a driver in the front and a driver in the back.  I took a video to show the grandsons how they backed it up into the spot next to the fire truck in the top picture.  It just fit.




Doorway John Lennon was shot in.


John and Yoko Lennon lived on the top floor with the gate around it.  She is in her 80's and still lives there.  They loved Central Park which is across the street to the right

See the guy in the right corner....he is facing the corner and talking.   Bill and I tried it and when you talk in the one corner and the other person is in the corner across from you, you can hear them as plain as can be

Harald Square...We sat out here for a while after we shopped and waited for our bus.  It was a warm and beautiful evening
Empire State Building at Night.  They change the color every night.

This is a street where they cut any kind of diamond you want.  The street lights are diamond shaped.  I took it from the bus, but you can see the light
