<p>Wow!! That’s the kind of whirlwind trip I sometimes make, but I live only 2 hours away by train…and my “6 hours” are from noon to 6. Also, I’m not in a rush to catch a train…there are a bunch of them.</p>
<p>Sounds like a wonderful trip–seeing the tree and the skaters and the river from upper Manhattan, plus some neighborhoods–a real New York day in my opinion. I am so glad your visit was a success. (Yesterday was very cold for this time of year in NY, incidentally–the wind was brutal and I wore hat and gloves for the first time this season–the forecast for the weekend I heard earlier in the week hadn’t been as cold. But at least you had great sunshine and bright skies.)</p>
<p>So glad you enjoyed your trip - and I’ve never been to Tyron Park. It sounds lovely, so I’ll have to check it out one day. I just never seem to venture that far north in the city.</p>
<p>We were very cold! So glad we brought beanies and gloves. Also forgot it gets dark around 4:30 in those higher latitudes! We will definitely go again.</p>
