This morning we got up early again and we had the usual breakfast here in the hotel. Today we went to the American Museum of Natural History first. Soleil wanted to see the dinosaurs, so we mainly went just for the dinosaurs. When we got to the museum there were a lot of middle school and high school kids there. They were on a field trip. There were a lot of moms with their babies too, they had those play date type of thing with other moms.
While we were looking around, Sergio kept touching all the artifacts that were there in the museum! I told him not to cause he was going to catch something! AND all those kids were there, and some of them were coughing! We were surrounded with billions of bacteria! hahaha
After the museum we headed over to Brooklyn to look for the knitting factory. It was a pretty long subway ride. While we were on the subway there was a mom with her 2 infant kids. She took out her ipod and she gave and earphone to each of her kids. Then they both started listening and singing to the song. It was so cute! Cause at one point one of the kids said "I dont know this part of the song!" and the mom kept looking at them with pride and love! It was cute! I kept staring at them the whole time cause it was too adorable to ignore. Once we got on our stop, I looked around and there was graffiti everywhere. The people were different. There were a lot of indie people there. People wore clothes that were NOT black! It was different. In the city, everyone walks 100 mph and they all wear black and they think they're the shit.
Anyway, we found the knitting factory! The only reason why I recognized it was because I saw the knitting factory symbol. There was no sign outside saying that it was the knitting factory. It was just a building with a couple fliers outside. I really wanted to go inside, but we couldnt. So, we took a couple picture instead!
After the knitting factory we headed back to the city. We were on our way to central park to take a ride on a carriage! Before we stopped by central park, I stopped by this vendor who every time I passed by, he always had a line! So, I wanted to see what the big deal was. So, I stopped by and I asked the vendor what was the most popular item that ppl order. He said a particular sandwich and I asked if I could get that. The sandwich was pretty good. It was something different, I've never had anything like that before!
After I finished eating, we went to central park. We paid $32 for the carriage ride around central park. It was so nice! The horse was so pretty and the driver man person was so nice. We had a red fluffy blanket for our legs, cause it was so cold! He took us inside central park, and we saw an ice skating rink!
After our little ride, we walked across the street to take pictures in front of the plaza and the apple store AND FAO Schwarz again!
After the toy store we went shopping for a little bit. We went to MAC! Im not going to say what I bought, but I bought a couple things =) After the MAC store we went hunting for the jackal and Hyde restaurant. We couldnt find it =( We tried different addresses that they gave us, but we couldnt find it at ALL! So, we went to time square to find somewhere to eat. We went inside an olive garden and the wait was an hour and ten minutes. That was too long of a wait, so we left. We found this steakhouse across the street. OMG it was so GOOD!
All this food was a grand total of $20.07! It was worth every penny! It was GOOD! After we ate, we went to go take a couple pictures outside by time square and then we came to the hotel. We called it a night. Im so tired and sleepy now =(
Tomorrow we're going to visit CBGB, Serendipity, the party at the hello kitty store, we're going to see "Precious" at a movie theater, the opera house, and I forgot where else we're going to go.
I miss you LA!
Bye Bye!
