Blogger’s Note: I am posting a bit early for next
week's post so I can take this weekend off and be with my family. Happy Thanksgiving
and Happy Hannukah.
Most of the country had
their attention in New York this week in a very wholesome way. It ‘s
Thanksgiving and most of the country will be viewing the Macy’s Thanksgiving
Day Parade and admiring the gigantic balloons. This next t-shirt from New York
City is appropriate this week.
I have only visited New
York City twice: first when I visited my friend from college and second when my
cousin and I drove to New Jersey for her new job. The first one was rather
crazy: New York and Washington D.C. in five days. The latter trip was even
crazier trip: three days, five cities, 3000 miles, and only one speeding
ticket. At least the first one, I flew both ways.
I probably acquired this
t-shirt on my first trip since I had very little time on the second. I suspect
I bought this one the tourist traps in Times Square.
That was my first trip to
New York City. I remember exploring all the sites while my friend was at work.
I went to all the major requisite sites mostly via foot and subway. I visited
the Empire State Building, Wall Street, Rockefeller Center, the UN, even the
World Trade Center. The only major sites that I did not visit were the Statue
of Liberty and Ellis Island. It was raining hard then and I did not think it
would be an enjoyable experience to take the ferry.
I would love to visit NYC
again and go on a Broadway or Foodie tour. On those trips, I was too busy cramming
all the sight-seeing to enjoy a good restaurant or go to a Broadway show. I did
enjoy a slice of authentic New York pizza and saw some sidewalk entertainers,
but that is not quite the same.
Besides, now I want a
cronut.
