Travel day
17 Oktober 2022, Belanda ⋅ 🌧 16 °C
Exciting day!!

Traveling to New York.

Since schiphol told us it was going to be verrry busy we arrived pretty early at schiphol. We decided to meet up at 1pm.

Well those line were an absolute joke. There was nobody to be seen and with 15 minutes we made it through bagage check in, security and passport control.

Got a drink at Starbucks and did some games. And some chicken nuggets. Sadly our plane got delayed and we departed at 6pm.

We had some delicious dinner in the plane, also some coffee, and as we speak we have 3,5 hours to go. I got a bit of WiFi so that was kinda chill, but didn’t really work.

It’s now 10pm (Dutch time) so I’m getting a bit tired. So will try to do a powernap or smth.

Excited and super pumped about this trip. Can’t wait to arrive in New York 😍Baca selengkapnya

Arriving in new york
17 Oktober 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ 🌧 13 °C
We arrived in nyc at 8 pm. The flight itself was pretty okay, spend my time playing yatzhee with Lize and watching the Big Ben.

When we arrived we had to go through security and get our esta checked. This took some time. But after we were through our suitcases were already there. We went straight to the AirTrain, which went quite easily.

When we arrived at the subway station Jamaica it was hard to buy the subway tickets. We didn't all have a credit card, which led to that Thirza and Anouk had to pay for all our tickets for the AirTrain. After that we had a lot of difficulty to find the unlimited subway card. We gave up and tapped in with our phone. Well, those turnstiles with big suitcases were definitely a problem and we all got stuck lmao.

It was nearly 10:15pm when we finally sat in the subway.
It was a 30 min drive and a 13 min walk to our airbnb. I kinda felt weird, not yet knowing the neighborhood and kind of feeling like a target with a really big suitcases. But when we arrived in our airbnb all was good. The room was super small, but big enough to lay all the suitcases on the ground.

It was clean, thankgod.
We went to bed straightaway since the dutch time already was like 6am the next morning. I was exhausted. Only to be wide awake the next morning at 5 am.Baca selengkapnya

Walking around times sq, st patricks
18 Oktober 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 8 °C
I woke up at 5am and didn't get much sleep after that. We all were awake before 7am. We got showered and dressed up and went straight for breakfast around 8:15am. It was a truly beautiful day and even a little bit sunny.

We just walked to find breakfast and a place to sit (and wifi, Since we didn't had that much 5G). The best option was Pret a Manager. It costed me $10 for only a croissant and a cup of coffee. And that's when we knew it was definitely going to be an expensive day.

At the pret we made a planning for the day. We decided to first walk along 5th av towards the st. Patricks (I think it was like a 20 blocks walk or so). We came across the public library (which was still closed because it was still pretty early 9:21am) and so were all the shops at 5th. But it was nice walking there because it was pretty quiet.

9:40 am After we went in the st. Patricks we went to Rockefeller centre. And after that grabbed a snack at the magnolia bakery (10:08 am). From there we walked towards time square. We went into some shops (Disney store, Old Navy, Hard Rock Cafe) and after that hopped on a subway towards heralds sq around 11:15 ish.

At heralds sq we finally got to fix 2 out of 4 unlimited cards. The others still weren't working.Baca selengkapnya

Hudson park - The vessel & the edge
18 Oktober 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☁️ 9 °C
We arrived at the vessel at 11:38, we took a lot of pictures and discovered that the edge was literally on the other side of the park. So we grabbed some Starbucks (well rip money already) and we reserved some spontaneous tickets for the earliest time slot.

The ride to the top was stunning and amazing. It was an elevator with all animations and really cool. We were at the top around 1 pm. It was amazing. The looks, the view, the sun, the warmth. Really really enjoyed this. We took a lot of pictures. We almost spent 50 minutes at the top. Because there was also reaaaally good Wi-Fi, we all FaceTimed our relatives and showed the views and made everyone jealous, whoops.Baca selengkapnya

Highline, chelsea market, park
18 Oktober 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 9 °C
After we grabbed a well deserved burger at shake shack (damn those are really good), we continued our walking. Like we hadn't walked enough yet. We strolled over the high line. I must say I really thought it would be more. It was great, but there weren't that much art installations as I thought. There were some pretty nice views. Thankfully the sun was shining and it was really peaceful walking over there.

After that we went down and went through some big shops like apple, samsung, google, Starbucks. I also bought my AirPods :p. The Starbucks was really cool, it was a kind of factory that showed how everything was produced. Very cool.

At 16:11 we went to Chelsea market, which I still can't pronounce. It was also pretty nice. Since it was still tooo early and we just ate lunch like two hours ago. So we found the park we saw from the highline. I'm not sure how it is called any more but something like little island. We found some random rolling chairs and behaved like children for a bit.Baca selengkapnya

Happy hour & sushi time
18 Oktober 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C
At 6 pm we decided that we had enough of a walk for today and since it was happy hour we grabbed some cocktails. Back at Camden town.

We really wanted to eat sushi so we found a cute sushi place in Korean Town, which was close to our airbnb. So we hopped on a subway back to our airbnb and went for sushi. The outside looked very weird, but the inside was amazing. Never judge a book on its cover haha. At 7:45 pm we finally had our sushi. After a great dinner (but we were reaaaaly tired) we went straight to the airbnb.

Before we were in bed it was already 10 am. Dutch time 4 am. So you only can imagine how tired we were. Record by the way: almost 30000 steps in ONE day.

Breakfast at park, flat iron & harry pot
19 Oktober 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 7 °C
It’s already been half a year. Or longer, but I still want to update this. Probably not that detailed anymore. But sure, enjoy.

I remember waking up pretty early, which is kind of nice since we can actually start our day pretty early. This day we looked more into where we wanted to grab breakfast. Since yesterday was a kind of disaster. We found this cute place and by the looks of it it was good, since there was a really long line. I don’t remember how the place was called but I do remember how shocked I was that there were breakfast burgers. I mean???

Since it was suuuper busy we decided to take out our food and walked to the nearest park (Madison sq park) Which happened to be near flat iron building. We really enjoyed eating our breakfast in the sun.

After the that we walked around the neighborhood for a little bit, discovered the Harry Potter store (omyyy) and grabbed the subway around 11 am.Baca selengkapnya

Staten island ferry & outlet mall
19 Oktober 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 10 °C
We took the subway straight into financial district. On to the Staten Island ferry. In my mind the last time this ferry went to Brooklyn. I don’t know what I thought but I completely remembered it wrong.

It was pretty windy but the sun was out and it was all good. We stood outside at the back of the ferry and it was stunning. The views are amazing from the water. It just so surreal looking at the skyline. It feels like a dream.

Do when we arrived what was NOT Brooklyn (lmao) but Staten Island. (Duh, it’s called that way). We discovered a huge outlet center and went straight in. It was weird tho, it was super quiet and not busy at all. We looked around. Did a little bit of shopping. Grabbed some Starbucks (again…) and made our way back to the ferry. It was already 1 pm so we decided to grab some subway before we hopped on the ferry.

We enjoyed the view again, you really can’t get enough of it. I think I really can sit at the ferry all day and just look. During our supper we made some plans for the rest of the day. They really wanted to go to 9/11 museum/ground zero. But since I already saw that on my last trip I didn’t really feel like it. So I made some other plans and saw that there were some awesome dance classes at a good timing.Baca selengkapnya

Alone in nyc & fridays
19 Oktober 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 11 °C
We grabbed the subway together but I had to change to go uptown as the others continued to 9/11. This really was my first time alone in a subway in nyc. Which really felt weird. It was amazing tho, I always like to do things on my own after spending a lot of time with the group. I had to rush to get to the studio in time. But due to some delay of the subway I couldn’t make it in time to Broadway dance center. So I changed my plan to go to steps on Broadway. But when I arrived I couldn’t find the proper entry of the building (turned out I had to just walk in and go in to the elevator). Well that was the moment I found it scary to be alone and didn’t know where to go.

I decided to go to Central Park since that was a place I knew already. It was a 10 minute walk. In Central Park I walked around for a bit. Got something to drink and just sit down in the grass and enjoyed my view.

After I while I decided to walk back to the Airbnb since I still had some time to kill. I walked along 5th av. Saw the trump tower, went to the NBA shop. And got on the subway for a view stops because my feet where killing me.

Back at the apartment I showered, braided my hair and FaceTimed a friend as I waited for the others to return. Which didn’t took that long. At 6pm we were ready to go out for dinner, we had a lot of fun planned for the evening.

Walking to fridays for dinner it was the first time it was actually busy and the first time I felt like damn, yeah the city that never sleeps. But hey it was rush hour after all.Baca selengkapnya
