On a lonely rainy June night we decided to do a grazy break from a scientific academic conference up in Massachusetts to drive into NYC and back. All in one night. Here's a few pics describing how we attacked New York City:

Dealing the keys.


This is it: the latest Buick SUV and its suspected driver.


We got a full tank of gas, it was hundreds of miles to New York, but just three miles on the dash.


Hit it! ... Since we started from Massachusetts, a few breaks were needed.


God damn SUVs drink gas like horses do water.


Finally: Manhattan in sight! It was dark and rainy like in Scorcese's Taxi Driver...


Just keep yourselves behind...


Passing Yankee Stadium.


No soft driving in NYC mess.


Broadway down to Times Square. The traffic _is_ moving.


Checking the people out...


My partner in crime having it a little funny. He didn't drive that much -


A scene to remember: busy NYC streets on a rainy summer night.
