The view from my "office"

Hudson Yards and the Vessel are ‘on’ the High Line. There’s also The Shed, a huge performance building where the roof can slide open along these big wheels to have an open air area.

With their duty completed for the morning these two snipers casually walked across the Champs-Élysées, and waited for their Uber pick up.

With all the formalities completed - it was back to normal programming.

Looks like a small :p car. Either that or you have very long legs.

A bit of both!

Missed you by that much....

Back at a LON airport tomorrow to go to Spain for the F1 GP, but flying out of LGW.

Glad this wasn't me......

Oh how I'm longing to be back in Europe now! :P
 
The brave girl(s) staring down the New York Stock Exchange where the criminal incompetent greedy bankers caused the GFC and then were bailed out with billions of dollars by the tax payers in the US and none of those criminal went to jail.
Now, Trump is setting aside the safeguards that Obama instituted. So, Trump’s big business mates can do it over again.

The view from yesterdays office. IB Express J LGW to MAD.
20190510_114256.jpg

And IB J MAD to BCN. The lounge at MAD T4 was a zoo, took a while before we could find a seat. Food there was rubbish as usual. T4S much better. Flight was rammed and 3 jump seats in the coughpit and forward cabin were used by non rev pax!

20190510_173016.jpg

The weather in BCN looks pretty good, though. It's been a long week and a fairly long day and a half. In London it was 12 and rain... too cold.

In Delhi it was 43, but at least humidity was only 18%. Too hot.
