Roadtrip!! (Day 2)

So today we went into..THE CITY.
Yup.
THE. city. new york!
wwoo.
we took the train for nj and it was crowded.
we got out at penn station into madison square garden and i was like *spaz*ny (i've wanted to come here for ageeesss)
We walked up to Andrew's Coffee Shop for breakfast (which was amazingly cheap and yummy!) and then we went to times square.
they had random seats set up..so we sat. and i took pictures.
then we saw the huge line for broadway tickets and decided we'd do that next time..seeing as we only have 2 days here :/
afterwards we went to the M & M store!! So many M&Ms. And then, we went into Central Park. I went to strawberry fields. There was a guy playing across the universe. It made me sad. Then I bought john lennon pins for my bag at the kiosk closeby, and we went off to the subway. This took us to Battery Park City, near Ground Zero. We visited it. There's construction going on for the memorial and apparently they're building like four more towers along Greenwich Street. Then I saw the Irish Hunger Memorial (it included Ireland's native vegetation!!) and the statue of liberty from battery park. It isn't that big...:0
YAY!
okay next was harlem, and we went to lunch, and it was yummmyyy.
and then we went to the apollo and they had a huge michael jackson memorial and flowers and signage stuff. My mom signed but she apparently wasnt supposed to. Oopss.
Then we went back down to columbus circle. We went into the time warner center, which is a mall, and it had a borders with so many autographed books! some sounded excellent but i didn't havemoney. there was a youtube gathering for 789 at columbus circle so i went to that for like 15 minutes. unfortunately i didn't know anyone :/ like i knew ONE vlogger who was there, and of course all the kids there were NYC natives so yeah awkward. i left that and we went over to the subway to go back to penn station to newark. then we got lost after leaving the newark penn station. I don't understand. Penn station in new york, penn station in newark, and newark and new york are similar. UGGH.
So anyways...yeah nyc is awesome<3
