Rockefeller Center New York City

Entry containing 1 photo titled: Hola

Vanochtend waren we na onze feestavond gisteravond wel wat later wakker rond 6.30 kwamen we langzaam uit ons bedje weer een nieuwe dag voor de boeg. Na ons te hebben opgefrist op naar het ontbijt, wat we ons weer goed laten smaken. Meteen even alle leuke reacties lezen op onze trouwplannen. En de nieuwe verhalen er op zetten. Na ruim …

After one of many future sleepless nights due equally of being in a strange place and sleeping on an air mattress that refused to stay inflated the whole night, we awoke early enough, had a nice complimentary breakfast and suffered through a bumpy ride on the shuttle bus (also complimentary) to the subway station where we hopped on the yellow line …

The flight to New York was messed up.
I didn't take a book because I assumed they would have a tv on it! But they
didn’t so I spent 8 hours in boredom and my own crazy head. It was going
mental. I also thought I got food automatically because it was an international
flight so didn't bring anything to eat. I was so …

So, after falling in love with New York City last year, we decided to come back for a few days. Last year we stayed in New Jersey with our band, and didn't get to discover Manhattan as much as we wanted. Hence the comeback! We've been acting like crazy tourists though, climbing every building this town has to offer. The view from Empire State …

It's been another exhausting day for Kaf and her intrepid travel buddies. The day has been full of sightseeing, shopping and socialising.
Kaf rode the subway and thankfully didn't get mugged. She also visited the Statue of Liberty and the Rockefeller Centre.
Despite the gruelling schedule, Kaf has found time to show her true colours (not …

DOCH, ich war schon einmal in New York. Aber nach 2004 war es schön die Stadt mal wieder zu sehen. Die grösste Veränderung ist eigentlich, dass der Times Square jetzt eine Fussgänger Zone ist. ansonsten hat sich gar nicht so viel verändert. Das Fazit: Trotz ganz viel Regens hat wir eine super Zeit und New York ist …

Today we made sure we got up to have breakfast, us and everyone else in the building! We had to take our breakfast back upstairs, as there was no room. We filled our faces and suited up for a photoshoot in Harlem. By the time we made it into Harlem it was time for lunch. We wanted to get some soul food so we headed to a place called soul food diner …

Hey Hey! Whats going on? Its 11am here and we are on board the Greyhound Express to Boston, MA where Shell is applying for a position as professor at Harvard University. Hopefully we don't get raped as we haven’t herd very good reports on the bus system. Anyways it was a very busy and …

Sarah, my best friend since elementary school, who has never been to New York City, flew up for the weekend, leaving me sad and lonely come Monday morning at her departure back home.

Wanting to show her everything I see and do here, we walked up, down and across Manhattan (I lost 2-3 lbs, mind ya) from morning to night.
