New York pt. 2

Wow, we did so much on the third day! We went downtown by subway and got on the ferry to Staten Island. We did this to see lady liberty! The skyline of Manhattan was so beautiful, so awesome to see this in real life. When we got to Staten Island we immediately took the ferry back to Manhattan to do the next thing on our list haha.
We first got coffee, we are big supporters of many coffee breaks (chai latte for me) hihi. So we got some drinks at prĂȘt a manger, cute restaurant! Then we walked through Wall Street, and we actually ran into an Urban Outfitters! Well, let that be one of my favorite shops! The one in Amsterdam is always way too crowded, I hate that. This one was so peaceful, no lines in front of the fitting rooms, no lines in front of the checkout. Lovely. My mom gave me this way too cute dress as a present! It's my new fav. So after this little stop we went on with our goal of reaching the Brooklyn Bridge. But, my sis needed to go to the toilet. So we had to find one, but somehow we managed to get to a place where there was no one to be found. We got into a subway station and found one, it was one of the most discusting ones I've ever seen (and I've seen a lot at festivals). Well, we came out alive and finally went to the bridge! It was awesome, and as you may see I took a lot of selfies. My mom even took a selfie of herself!
After the Brooklyn Bridge we went to China Town and did a little coffee/food break and then Little Italy, so crazy all the Chinese people with their iPhone cases and "expensive" perfumes that they want to sell to you.
Oeh, in China Town I drank coconut water straight out of a coconut for only $2! Delicious. After all these adventures we went back to our hotel to rest a bit. Then, at like six 'o clock we went to the M&M store! I felt like such a tourist, but that didn't matter. I loved it, I felt like a little kid! After that we went to the Forever21 (for the second time), I bought two cute dresses. I li-la-love dresses! We did some more shopping and then went to prĂȘt a manger again to get some dinner and ate it in our comfy beds.



Well, that was a long story for just one day. Moving on, the fourth day.
We woke up and it was way too cold. But we had already decided to go to central park and rent some bikes with our newyork pass. Since we are all from Holland, we can ride bikes pretty well. So we needed to do this and off course central park is pretty awesome to visit by bike. Again, selfies. So, after we almost froze our noses off we went to this way to cute restaurant. To get, well I don't even need to say it, coffee! I got this time hibiscus/mint lemonade. And some pie, I got raspberry pie. I lovelovelove raspberries! When we were all warmed up a bit we took the subway to the American National Museum of History, my sis wanted to visit this place so bad 'cause of the movies Night at the Museum 1 and 2. Well I saw them both but I didn't recognize that much! But still, it was an awesome museum. After we were done at the museum we took the subway to the Rockefeller Centre, we went up in an awesome disco elevator haha. The view was too pretty, we saw central park where we just had been and the Empire State building at the other side! Again, a lot of selfies. After we got down again in the disco elevator we went towards our hotel and did some shopping and again lay down on our comfy beds and watched some series. These were two really good days <3


I hope you like all my NY stories. There's two days left to show, so I'll be posting that this weekend!
