Zzzzzzzzz

Asleep, NYC
Photo by myself on the N train.

This couple showed signs of obvious exhaustion on their ride home.

One of the most common conversations among New Yorkers involves the commute - what train do you take, how packed is it, can you get a seat during rush hour, yadda yadda.

And if you don't take the train, how long is your walk? Or do you simply live large and cab it into work?

I know a handful of people lucky enough to walk to work each day. Some walk for exercise, others walk to reduce stress. Walking saves a bit of money, too. If you walk to work for a month, you save $108 dollars!

How do they know when to wake up and get off?

Very nice shot, Kitty. I hope they have an alarm.

haha, Laurent.
Yes, traveling can be so tiring!

Hi Mr. Lincoln!
I'm sure that's an issue, unless they get off at the very very end.

Hello Buenos Aires
Thank you! Mark is having a lovely time in your city.

I wish he'd been gone for longer, else I'd be able to visit him. I've never been to BA and would love to go.

I had a friend who worked in the city. His commute was 1 1/2 hrs. each way. I still think he's crazy.

Walking or riding a bike, that's how I get around. This is a very good photo.

The rockin' back and forth on the trains always made me sleepy.
