We didn't plan on visiting Time Square, but we were in the area so decided to swing by.
We are staying Chelsea which is away from the major tourist areas, it's busy and lively, but there aren't hordes of people everywhere. In fact there haven't been large crowds anywhere we've visited . . . . except Times Square

Can you spot the Naked Cowboy? Busy day for him (it was really hot - he would have been sticky!!)
