Times Square

I usually try to avoid large crowds, but the crowds in New York were fun. There were so many people of all kinds. They were all going somewhere. Many were working and many were tourists. It was an interesting mix. I enjoyed walking around Times Square. During rush hour in New York there are as many people trying to walk down the side walk as cars trying to get down the crowded streets. At each block you cross the street with at least 30 to 50 people at each crosswalk. Our hotel was about 10 blocks from Times Square so we walked through this area a few times. We noticed that the people in New York walk so much that there were a lot less overweight people than at home in Florida. I guess you get in shape walking around the city.
