Welcome to 2013, where, thanks to the 24-hour news cycle, people who ride the train for nine hours and take pictures of themselves can make headlines. This couple decided to spend their Wednesday on the subway. You know, because there are no parks, beaches, museums, theaters or areas of historical significance in New York City.

James Doernberg and Kai Jordan hopped out of the train long enough to take a picture of themselves at every train station in Manhattan. All 118 of them. Doernberg says the nine hours they spent traveling up and down Manhattan "flew by." They seem to be having fun. Take a look at the photos below and see for yourself.
