Day in New York

Sky and I took a trip to New York on Tuesday. She played hooky from work and I drove the 2 hours there. It was Ever so much fun. My paper map seemed to stop working when we got into New York so we had to use her phone's GPS to figure out how to get there. Our goal there was to... well we didn't have a goal. She wanted Chinese tea from somewhere. It was very ghetto-ish there. She is use to the richy part of New York, but for me, it was my first time and most fun!



Heheh, after we found the tea shop we got lost trying to find E10th st. A kind New Yorker tried to help us, but our map sucked so bad she couldn't help. :( aww. Anyways we found it after a few mile hike. And TADA! We found an awesome little shop that served authentic ramen.

Ohhh... OH! it was SOOO GOOD! I had curry ramen. OH...oh... I think they were special curry udon noodles in a curry broth with scallions and an egg. I didn't like the seaweed but OMG it was so good. It was a little hole in the wall type of place and poor Sky and I had trouble in there, she more than I. :( Poor girl.

Anyways we ate and I wanted to go to Kinokuniya... but oh my what a far distance. It was either Hoof it or subway. Sky was not too fond of them, and I never been before... We took a subway. XD SUFFER FOR THE GOLD!

Oh Kinokuniya was sooooo awesome! I loved it and I wanted to stay so long but it was getting dark and we needed to get back to the car. So I bought some mushishi goodness and Sky picked some random CDs. Instead of heading straight back we saw the sights. Hit the town... Attacked the city...



Skyzilla and King ME-kong.
After whatever, we took a subway back to the car. We grabbed dinner in Little Italy. Sadly I couldn't read the menu, and it was pricey.... and didn't taste that good. The meat was good. The stuff on and under it was very... experimental I think. And my 3dollar cup of lemonade was bitter and undrinkable.

On our way home we were so tired and in a weird mood that listening to Sky's new CDs were just hilariously horrible. Hahahaha...

Ah, over all it was a good day. We were not robbed or shot at or killed. We did not become a plot for CSI:NY or Law & Order. And for that we are thankful to you, New York.
