Things you only see in New York.

Photoshoot at a Diner.
Walking through Chelsea we saw a couple of "tour" buses parked along with several equipment trucks. I commented to P that perhaps a movie or TV was being filmed. As we got closer, we realized that a photoshoot was underway next to the Empire State Diner. The windows had been frosted to give the appearance of winter and snow was blowing from a machine. Of course it is mid May with temperatures in the 70's. Looking closer, we realized that the snow was not some kind of cotton but was "real." It would melt as it hit the ground. We watched the creators do several "takes" with them taking numerous photos. I don't know if the model was someone I should recognize. We asked the staffers what was going on and they said it was a photoshoot for promotion of a product in Asia and probably would never see publication in the US. Well, it was interesting to watch for us yokels.
