My sister and I started off the day with my parents, and went out to eat at this AMAZING ramen place. It was really expensive (like the rest of New York) but totally worth it :D On the way there, I saw these odd poles, which I found funny because they had signs saying "No Standing Anytime" and there were spikes all over it XD
And here are some pics of the ramen place:
The front
My mom :P
The plates and stuff
The appetizers - OMG These were AMAZING. There were also these baos with this nomful sauce and meat and lettuce that were DELISH! But we ate them all by the time I remembered to take a picture T^T
The ramen! Yumyum
More ramen
Some of the decor
We then went to the world trading center or what not, which I found pretty boring (lol). So I didn't take many pics:
If anyone knows what that red thing is supposed to be, please tell me o-o
It was TALL
We then went to Battery Park and I fooled around and stuff X3
We saw the Statue of Liberty, but it was really far away and my iphone just would not focus =_=
A statue I saw. I have no clue what it is lolz
Some odd looking people I saw. Ah, New York. XD
While we were at Battery Park, my sis started talking about this really good hot chocolate place, so I convinced my parents to take us. It was sooooooooooooooooooooooo good >.<
On the way there, I saw a Hunger Games dedicated place. Amazing!!
At the hot chocolate place, they were selling homemade marshmallows, which were REALLY good!! They were soft and not as chewy as store-bought marshmallows, and melted in your mouth >.<
The hot chocolate pot :P
The hot chocolate we bought. It was really creamy and tasted like good-quality melted chocolate. The thing on the fork was the marshmallow, after my sister and I nearly devoured it all XD
We went to Union Square to finish our nomful hot chocolate. At this point, we had lost my parents, but it didn't really matter XD Union Square was a really relaxing place to be.
Union Square, with the hobos and everything.
This is the flag in the middle of Union Square, but I was too lazy to take a good shot of it.
SQUIRREL!
Pigeons are so much fun to chase XP
I happened to chase this one :3
As you can see in this picture
Another pigeon I tortured
Bwahahahah!!!!
We saw some awesome musicians playing there. Their music made me feel good X)
I took a pic of this building because I found the old, fading ads at the top of it to be really cool and interesting.
There was a park there too.
With lots of kids.
As seen in this picture. It was pretty amusing watching them push and shove and fall as they spinned around and around the thing they were on. >:D
Another part of the playground
Guess what it is.
My sister spacing out. And a hobo (? or a mom) in the background.
A kid desperately trying to climb to the top of the dome. And failing >:3
I dragged my sister to Petco afterwards, and I saw the CUTEST chinchillas X3 And they're cheaper than the ones in California too! By, like, 200 dollars =_=||
AW
AWWW
AWWWWW!!!!!!!
HAMMIES!!!
My sister was spacing out in a weird manner, so I decided to take a beautiful picture of her XD
We went to Barnes and Nobles after that. Petco was to the left of Barnes btw (in the picture). And the Barnes was HUGE!!! I think that there were 4 floors, and each floor was as big (or bigger) than the Barnes and Noble near my house!!
While we were exploring, I realized that we didn't have a ride home because my mom called looking for us and I never picked up (ehehe), so we took the subway. And may I say that the New York subway is the NASTIEST, SMELLIEST, DIRTIEST, MOST DISGUSTING AND REVOLTING PLACE I HAVE EVER BEEN TO, with the exception of China. I dunno how I even survived that stink hole =_= *shudders*
My sister going down to her doom
Inside the subway (it looks somewhat clean in this pic, but don't be fooled)
The railroad tracks, in all their pride and glory.
Subway Train!
Another subway train
We went to a smoothie place with super yummy drinks, but apparently I wasn't supposed to take pictures of their shop because they're afraid of being copied or something (which doesn't make sense, because if someone wanted to copy their designs, they could seriously just buy a smoothie and stay in the shop examining it). Hmm. That explains the disapproving glares I got when I took pictures of other people's shops. lol
This is the drink I got. Bad lighting, sorry!
We were dead tired already, but since we were locked out of my sister's apartment anyways, we decided to go watch Broadway which I DO NOT regret. It was absolutely AMAZING!
All the shows and stuffs
The view from the ticketron where we got tickets. It looks spectacular in the night time.
There were a lot of bright lights. Which my camera sucks at taking pics of =_= That and dark places.
We bought our tickets, and since we had some time, we went to the M&M factory, which had a lot of stuff. Unfortunately, we only had 20 minutes or so, so we couldn't stay there too long. There was a whole wall of candy though X3
One of the several walls of candy :D
Another wall - Easter themed!
The huge M&M guy at the front of the inside of the M&M place.
The M&Ms we bought. We snuck them into the Broadway theater and ate them as we watched X3
My sister being the weird person she is XD
We were going to watch Chicago, which was great. Chicago is basically about murderesses that killed someone (usually their husband or lover). Velma, the person who kind of hates the main character Roxy, was an AMAZING actor. She was a bit old (it was obvious with the wrinkles that showed around her neck line), but the 6 years of experience playing her role made her the best one in the whole play, in my opinion. She had the character down completely, sang wonderfully, and had really sharp movements in her dancing. The main character Roxy had just started performing a few days ago, so she didn't flow as well with the scenes, and her singing was a bit shaky. I think she'll do better as she gets more experience though. And Roxy's husband was hilarious, but it was so sad, because he really truly loved her, but she was just manipulating him the whole time. It was also pretty funny though XD
Chicago!! Did you know that each show has their own building to perform in? Thats so cool :O
The inside of the building
The top of the building
You can't see it well, but thats the orchestra people. Unfortunately, I couldn't take pics of the performance because it wasn't allowed =/
