Models and fat people

New York really seems to be a place where there are a lot of skinny stunning tall women and several obese Americans.

Depending where you look it can put you off your food. Look one way and there's a skinny person making you feel guilty about eating that great slice of cheese coated pizza but look the other way and there's a fat person shoving their face which just, well, makes you not want that slice of greasy goodness anymore.

The most fascinating thing here is really the people. Times Square seems to be full of tourists, while getting further out there are different sects of models, hip young people, older hardened New Yorkers and hawkers selling anything from "Obama condoms" to that useless I love New York T-shirt. FYI I bought the t-shirt for $2 not the condoms.

I've also been fascinated by how many Jewish people there are here.

It's a fascinating city which captures my attention at every corner for its people watching opportunities as much as its famous sights and sounds.
