THe High Line Street Fair

So many people in the street on a bright sunny day.
It felt almost like Mardi Gras.

There were all sorts of balloon creations.
Very different from ones I've seen before.



This one is like a sea anemone



or a flower




or even a piece of sushi
it takes on a life of its own
 soaring up into the blue.

  3. This High Line really seems to have taken off doesn't it? You are even having street parties on it now!
    I am having the greatest difficulty in moving your blog once I get on it, it tends to stick and I can't read it all. Very frustrating.
    Finally got it to work today though.

  5. Nice photo of you and Buster Elizabeth!
    I love to go to NYC street fairs. There's usually so much good food, great people watching and fun events. We went to Broadway this weekend to see Billy Elliot. I was amazed by the amount of people in the new pedestrian malls in Time Square! i

  12. Love the sea anemone - I would love one of those floating about my garden.

    (PS. I've been having the same trouble as Willow....the page keeps freezing and I have to reboot each time. Never mind, I keep trying!)

  13. The High Line Street Fair? I hadn't heard of that parade before. The sea anemone in the sky looks amazing, though. What a terrific idea! I can just imagine that it must move like one in a light breeze. Cool.
