Lots of streets waiting to be explored.
Checked in at our hotel, which was at Brooklyn.
Basically, in NYC, only Manhattan is truly prosperous.
Brooklyn, Bronx and Queens are the places with the high crime rates and dark shady streets and people.
But, more on that next time.
In NYC, its so easy to get around.
We just walked around the whole day! Felt sooooo goood to use my feet!
5th Avenue, where all the branded stores are.
We just walked the morning away. And for lunner, Shake Shack. It's this famous burger joint thats only available in NYC.
The queue, is no joke. We queued for about an hour and a half.
Guess Singaporeans arent the only ones who are willing to queue for food.
Worth the wait? Well, I wouldnt recommend the signature Shack burger, but do go for the Mushroom burger. THe mushroom ooooooozes out into your mouth mm mm.
Museum of Sex. Saw some verrrrrrrrrrrrry interesting books ;)
One thing about New Yorkers, they are chronic jaywalkers.
The sign there is actually the STOP sign, but do you see anyone stopping? NO!
Its just in their 'culture'. Cars always have to end up giving way even when their light is green. And best part is, NYPD doesnt care. Saw police cars around but seems to me that jaywalking isnt a crime over there. After just a few days there, I got so used to crossing the road without looking at the lights. Just look at the roads. No cars=cross. Got car=cross faster. Pedestrians give way for noone! LOL
Sightseeing at night.
We didnt go up the Empire. We went up another building, the Rockefeller, so that we could get a view of the Empire. Sounds like a smarter choice.
