on the high line

last night, aunt kathy and uncle warren arrived. they'll stay until saturday morning (warren has a psychology conference he attends every year at this time). while he was at his conference, kathy, chanda and i visited the high line. the new section just opened this week. this is my favorite part of the new section. it's the back of an old church (i love the red brick), which has a school attached. the children were out playing in the courtyard. it felt very intimate and warm.


it gets very narrow and close to the neighboring buildings. i'm not sure everyone likes all these people walking by their windows so high up!


this is the end up around 30th street.


greg met us at around 27th street, and we squeezed into a small patch of shade to have a picnic lunch. (the trees are too small yet for sun protection. we escaped the rays under scaffolding . . for once we were thankful for ongoing building construction).


chanda is eating a delicious hibiscus pop from la newyorkina, (oh, they are really good!)

it was incredibly warm, and it felt great to be out in the sun. i even got a little sunburned . . but not too bad.
