Description
On April 29th of last year, Leslie and I started the day with a 3 hour pizza walking tour. I love walking and walking tours.
Slight digression. Last Saturday, my mind decided to take a vacation without letting me know about it. I was standing on a bed taking pictures of the sunlight coming through blinds and lace curtains. When I had taken quite a few. I carefully lay my camera down on the bed, and automatically (with no thought) got down as I had done for many years. I stepped off the bed to the floor. It was when pain exploded in my right knee and I decided to consider the carpet for a while, that my brain came back and said thoughtfully, "You know, it might not be such a great idea to put all your weight suddenly on a knee with a torn ACL." I sure wish my brain would stay at home. On the bright side, I'm still going to physical therapy for the original injury, and I already have sleeve thingys to wear on my legs. And walking is good for them just not landing hard from a height.
Back to the pizza tour. This was taken at the second place where we sampled pizza. It was a great tour, which I will talk about more in posts to come. Now I'm going to don a sleeve on my leg and take a walk with my son. :)
Thanks for viewing and for previous comments and favs!

Pizza tour, oh count me in next time. One of the only 7 photos Erin sent to me from her trip to New York was of a pizza lol.. she said she never ate so much in her life. Sorry to hear about the damage to your knee, it sounds very painful and I hope it heals very soon..

Now I understand the reference to my knee injury. This is definitely New York. Great capture, I like the depth of the image (can see all the way into the back). I've had pizza all over the world and New York is the best. They say it has something to do with the water. Must be all those drowned mobsters in the East River.

Sorry about your knee, you will have to be more careful in future. This is a nice shot, the chap in the middle seems to be in a hurry (checking the time).

A really interesting and engaging shot, and a fascinating narrative. What a nasty accident you had! I should have the gastronomic equivalent if I ate pizza and then tried walking..crippling abdominal pains with too much dough/peppers/fat. Do like the occasional crispy thin with anchovies though.

for someone who has never visited New York, this is a scene i have quite often imagined, wonderfully candid shot

So sorry about that acl Lucinda, and I'll keep you in my prayers that you can recover from that soon. Thank heaven you were not hurt any worse by the fall and hope you can stay off it as much as possible. This is a cool photo by the way, and looks like a tasty place to visit.

Let's take an old fashioned walk, I'm just bursting with talk...... Sterling lighting contrasts and reflections in this capture of the establishment, Lucinda. I'll take mine with mushrooms and pepperoni, thank you! And, sorry about your knee. Things like that can be terribly painful and debilitating.

OOOOH - New York style pizza! Can't think about it, can't think about it, can't - oh drat! You would know I'm on a diet! Hope you had an extra slice for me LOL! Sorry about the ACL, been there, it WILL get better. Wonderful capture!

Ok, what's to stop someone, like say...me, from going YOINK and running orf with a window pizza?? Other than the fact that I'm crip that is?

Oooh, I wanna go on a pizza tour! It would rank up there with a Czech pub crawl...by the end of it you're literally crawling...I won't say how I know that, nor will I implicate anyone named Stepan OR his brother Ondra (the bartender who started it all!) I will say, however, that a pizza crawl sounds like immense fun, though the bit about the knee is a bit of a damper, but gladly, that was something not quite as disastrous as it could be. What I really like about this shot is the whole New York vibe this has...it's timeless. It could be a picture from yesterday, or a picture from the previous century. It has that kind of rough and tumble (but elegant) vibe that Chicago once had, when guys like Jake and Elwood were still doing their thing in the grungy, fun parts of the city with borderline incendiary names like "JewTown:" it was always a matter of accent that told you whether the name was just a name or a slur. Chicago has cleaned itself up a bit, but in doing so, I fear that it's thrown the baby out with the bathwater. And this shot reminds me of all of the things that I once loved about Chicago, even though it's New York, and thus bigger, a wee bit more authentic, and jiggly with all sorts of energy: some of it good, some of it bad, and some of it indifferent. This is a marvel of a photo!
