Firstly, happy belated birthday to myself! shall blog about my birthday on the next entry. I must finish about new York.
Fifth Avenue and Shake Shack
Jason said it was the best burger he has tasted in his entire life. And trust me, he is the most eligible person to be the critic, based on his volume of food intake. He probably ate as much as I would have eaten in 40 years out of his 24 years of living. But it’s BEEF burger. So I can just watch them go slurping away with the juicy burger, while I ate my pathetic bird dog (chicken hot dog bun) which was not worth my time writing on it.
Chinatown
Even strong ang moh brands have to give in and have Chinese characters at this heavily cheena place! We had dinner at the famous Shanghai 绿波廊, new York branch!
This is how the New York branch looks.
This was the authentic one that I went in 2007!
Frankly, the food was nowhere near the one I’ve eaten at Shanghai.
But this Chinatown ice cream factory was REALLY GOOD. They had exotic flavours like lychee and coconut. It’s like eating snow with a sweet coconut taste to it.
Woodbury Premium Outlet
Situated at New Jersey, we shopped from late morning till night, and I only combed 40% of the outlets. Those that I didn’t comb are available at North Georgia, so my pocket will burn another time.
Photos courtesy of Jason and Chubs, cos I’ve got no hands/time/mood to whip out my camera. My shopping tap spoiled again and I couldn’t fix it. Actually half of my purchases are not for myself. This is a true confession of a shopaholic.
I shall not go ranting about my purchases. It’ll only pain my heart and probably my mum’s and jieying’s as well. You can see them in my photos when I wear them!
The Last Day of missed flight
We visited the Empire State Building on the last day.
Photo credit to Lyn (finally) for the group photo and Chubs for the giant-wrecking-havoc-on-the-street photo. I am the Godzilla in this picture! All monsters/heroes love to be near the empire state building!
The flight back was exciting. It was the first time my group of friends got separated and 4 of them didn’t make it to the flight on time! Security check at New York airport.. you know…
The 3 girls and Wenyi, got to skip school the next day. Blessing in disguise!
Well, but the flight was GOOD. the scenery was Oh.Am.Gee NICE!
Try capturing a crescent moon coexisting with a sunset, against a nice gradient, in a single picture, miles above the ground!
New York Chapter Finally ENDED!
