New York - Part 12 (18 Dec 08) Conquering the Empire State Building

Click on the link below to know more about the Empire State Building!
Background: http://www.esbnyc.com/index2.cfm

Fantastic weather with very little fog today!
It will be great to spend the time
conquering the Empire State Building!!!

No idea what Empire State Building is?
Fret not!!! Just recall the show "King Kong"!
That is the Empire State Building it was climbing!
Obviously, I cannot alow myself to "lose" to
a King Kong, right? If it can do it, I CAN! haha... :P

That's the building! Found it after going round
the same few streets a few times... haha... too
high to be seen! T ___ T

Evidence of myself at the top! Haha
That was of course after queuing up for more than 30 minutes.
The place is full of tourists during good weathers!

But no one will probably try to skip the crowds and
come on a bad day, right? There will be NOTHING to see then! lolz

Found this information on one of the walls!
Now I understand why... do you?

That's the peak! :)

The peak from another angle.

Check out the crowds! Squeezing through...

Everyone is so focus... O __ o

With this, one can see very far. :)
Do you know what it is?

Guess what? It only cost 50 cents to use it. Cheap?

There are a couple of these there.
Each individual one will allow one to see different icons
in NYC, and it will be clearly reflected on it... just like the above! :)
How convenient!

Okay, enough of my boring chat!
Let me show you what I have seen there...
starting from the specially edited pigeon series!!!
Lucky birds! They got here for free while I had to fork out
US$20 to get up here! Sob sob...



Pigeon X: Don't be envious of me!!! :P

















Pigeon Y: Look what happen to our homes... It is gone,
destroyed by humans for all these bricks and rubbles! :(







Pigeon Z: It's free anyway! Will be a waste not to view from here...
You know, it is not easy to find a "tree" this high! haha...

End of pigeon series...


Safety first... haha... actually, I am more worried about my camera phone.
