GREASE is the word~!

Guess who's back? And no, it's not Slim Shady.


Oh wow. New York was...busy. Me and my good ol' family decided it would be a wonderful idea to stay at the Renaissance in Time Square. Thankfully we were on the 21st floor, so there wasn't much noise.

Here's a few things i've learned from this trip;


1. Pizza. There was a restaurant about a block away from our hotel. I think it was...Ray's Pizza? Anyways, if you ever go, don't let the outside fool you (it's very plain and cheap looking, if you ask me) the pizza is amazing. Like...freaking godly.


2. Price. Yes, all of the restaurants in Time Square are overpriced. We payed 80 dollars for breakfast once. Although, there's a nice little restaurant called Pax where you can have an awesome breakfast for about 30 dollars. (four people)


3. Pretzel Dogs. Apologies for my language, but they are fucking delicious.


4.Streets. You have to walk everywhere you go. Unless you want to spend an hour in traffic, just walk. It's not as far as you'd think. We walked from Time Square, to Battery Park in less than 30 minutes.

5. Musicals. Oh god, the musicals. I saw Grease, and The Little Mermaid. I would suggest both. Surprisingly, being a Disney fan, I actually liked Grease more. I don't know why.



6. New York University = Nyuuuuuuu~~


7. Chinatown. God, everything is so cheap. And when you ask for 'designer' purses (Okay, we all know they're not. Knockoffs. Gotta love them) they'll most likely ask you to go to the back of the store. Sometimes, they have vans or cars outside and they sell from there. And sometimes, they'll ask you to get in. Honestly, it's completely safe. You just can't sell designer knockoffs on the street because it's illegal.

But, if you really do feel uncomfortable, then don't.


8. World Trade Center Site. Wow, that certainly pulled some heartstrings.


9. Statue Of Liberty. I didn't really get to see much, because apparently, I get seasick now. Boats. Ugh.

** I will be adding site-seeing pictures here eventually.

Oh, I've been to NYC a couple of times. And yeah, it IS amazing. xD Though, I'm not much one for big cities...

Anyway, glad ya had fun, Neko! And glad to have you back!

Been there once.
Your experience sounds similar to mine with the exception of shows.
You saw Grease and The Little Mermaid, I saw Wicked, Spamalot, and the Blue Man Group.
Also, should you ever go again, look for the 2nd Avenue Deli ((It's not on 2nd Avenue anymore)). It's scrumptious.

You missed one, Zexy

... T_T Welcome back!

*Laughs at the list*

Going to New York City sounds so neat but sadly I don't think I'll ever go T_T

Hopefully you can get the pictures up soon because I'm sure we'd all love to see 'em!

Dude, you were an hour from my house and you didn't tell me!? *has a complete spazz attack*

Looks like I'll have to kidnap you next time you cross the border. *sinister cackle* But it's good to hear that you've enjoyed yourself.

And you've found Ray's Pizza! It's been a while since I've last been there, but yes, their pizza is AMAZING.

Welcome back, Neko~ <3
