September 4
Bright and sunny day at NYC – wah.. so hot! Ok, here’s the part about NYC. The moment you step outside , you can smell a bad stench – the kind that will mk you vomit. The roads are also badly littered. It’s not a nice sight at all… and very different from WA state ( which is not exactly v clean , at least not as dirty)
Anyhow, Times Sq in the morning is very quiet. The night before, we noticed a lot of tourist taking pics with the policeman. Haha.. we found it so weird and funny that a policeman is a photo icon! haha.. oh well.. we took picture with the police station sign, just as bad right :X hehehe.
The real subway…. OMG! It’s seriously HOT… there no aircon and the HOT air is trapped underground… booo…. and the stench and weird pple… erm… worst than SG.. BUT it’s the fastest and most convenient way to get around
Took the train to South Ferry to see Statue of liberty. PLEASE GO EARLY! we reached at 8.45am and it was crowded already. Mind you, we need to go thru’ security checks, so it will take up sometime
Ok.. it’s kinda hard to have a good view on the cruise. It is just filled with people.. and everyone were like Meerkats – trying to take a picture. I kinda gave up… and played Wordament instead.
At Liberty Island, it was beautiful 🙂 I was really glad that I saw Statue of Liberty in real life after so long!!
Then I was busy completing the activity book so that I could earn a priceless and FREE souvenir at Liberty island. Ever since I first started at Mt Rainier, I have been collecting them at every National Park I go
The ranger is really nice to let me wear his hat and gave me a little ceromony 😀
After which we left Liberty Island (skipped Ellis Island) and went to Chinatown and Little Italy.. you know.. doing the usual touristy stuff..
The highlight of the night was meeting Keying and Zim for dinner then went to their super cool home and played with Sam 🙂 haha… I think I missed Bambi so much that I called Sam Bambi several times.. hehehe… paiseh..
We so need a dog man… haha..
