A walk around Wall Street and Battery Park area this morning
Good evening everyone, I am sharing a few shots taken today with my iPhone for my Actifit post, Last night when I went to bed with my knee taped up and a plan for a quite walking day today, but the best laid plans of mice and men, it was a nice morning and I felt the need for a walk to think some things through and decided to catch the subway up to Wall Street and take a stroll around.
Stopping in Wall Street I had to get a shot of the big Charging Bull Statue, the good thing about going there in the early morning is you can see it without it being surrounded by Tourists, at the end of my stroll this morning about an hour later I passed by the Bull again and the crowds were already building up there

From there I walked to Battery Park, I didnt try to get a close in shot of the Statue of Liberty of my phone as it would not do it justice, but i did get this shot of some of the detail on the fence and if you look closely you can see a Staten Island Ferry and the Statue of Liberty in the background.
I did consider briefly jumping on the ferry to go past the Statue and get some shots, a ride i have never taken, but I thought by the time I went across and back i would e seriously late for work so decided to leave that for another day.
I did take someshots of both with my Sony Camera for future posts

NOw to be fair since there was such animosity between the creator of the Charging Bull over the Fearless Girl Statue being placed by it , the fearless girl was moved to facing the NY Stock Exchange building and i had to get a shot of it for this post also

And people often comment how do I get shots in NYC so often with no or few people in shot, the answer is when I want shots of a place that gets busy during the day I head there early morning, this next shot is in don’t of the stock exchange near the end of my walk a little after 8Am and as you can see plenty are people are out and about but this time

And by then I had to get moving back to the office so I went into the Futon Street Station to catch the Subway, as you can see this station connects with many of the subway lines.

And since I surprised myself at a little after 9 this morning I noticed I was just under the 110K before 10 Am to use the #Automaticwin tag I went for a quick stroll around the office and here is a screenshot showing that as at 9:22 I had done over 10k Steps
And so much for me listening to myself and taking it easy today, with this mornings walk, and my normal walking during the day I went well over my normal 10K goal, well over the 6 or 7K ( \OK 3 times over it LOL)goal I said to stick within today, but that all said it was a good day and my knee is not complaining too much,
And thats all folks!
