Haute Subway

The greatest thing about living in NYC is getting a surprise every day. Whether it is beautiful music, a lovely street festival or a new restaurant, you are guaranteed to get a pleasant surprise daily.

I received an especially great surprise last night on the S train. The train pulled up covered with photos of flowers and I was immediately intrigued. When I stepped into the train car, it was like stepping into another world.

After doing a bit of research I discovered that the train was decorated with photos of Holland to allow New Yorkers to feel like they were traveling to the Netherlands. You can read all about it here.

However, in case you aren’t in NYC to behold this train, I took some photos just for you to enjoy.

Which car is your favorite?
