  Here’s a quick NYC post in between all the London pics. If you’re in town on a Sunday, take a ride aboard the vintage MTA holiday train which runs between 2nd avenue and queens plaza. It’s a perfectly festive ride for anyone headed to the holiday market shops in Bryant Park!  I snapped this photo of a small shopping marketplace while walking back from the tube. No idea what its called but the square was charming and quaint. Hi Sher, I am so glad you commented on my blog, I really love your photographs and am gradually working my way through your lovely posts!
