New york: last days

ISo we spent the last two days shopping! Well my sister decided so! She has a point, people shop in New York since it has alot of outlets. So we went to a mall in New Jersey and my sister shopped till she was broke and came to me asking for money! I dont understand creatures like her :/. If you cant afford it then DONT BUY IT! She insisted that it was such a good deal blah blah blah! 



At night, we headed to see a broadway show and we ended up seeing the LION KING! Well, dont kill me but i was not impressed lol!  Maybe because i knew the story and maybe because i saw different versions of the lion king musical? Dont get me wrong, i got nothing against musicals, i enjoyed the wizard of Oz when it was in TO but i guess i was expecting more of a lion king show and a show being played in broadway .. Or maybe thats just me!

I mean, i get bored easily, mystery excites me n if i knew the story and seen it done similarly, it will kill the mystery if you know what i mean.


Anyway our last day was spent in Central park! We biked it all and it was almost 9km according to the guy n it took us 2hrs! It is such a beautiful park! It had fall colors all over but it was pretty busy *pouts* 





Im really starting to see that toronto tried so hard to imitate NYC lol! Central park feels like high park! The only difference is that in high park, there sre some hiking trails! 

And we ended up spending the rest of the day souvenirs shopping!

At the end while we were dragging our bags to the subway, the door keeper at the hotel told us to be careful on the subway! He said that there are alot of theft and assaults on busy subways in daylight! Ppl dont care whos around n what time and would assault you if you looked like u got money! He said he would rather pay 80$ for a cab than go on a subway because its dangerous lol!

He really got us but then we were running late and it was rush hour and we knew that a cab will be stuck in traffic for hours so we took the risk! 

Omg! NYC subways are the worst if you are carrying luggage!! Escalators / elevators are not available in every station and theres alot of stairs and the subway is so busy and ppl will rush you while you are trying to carry down your heavy bag down a hundred step :/  my sister as usual has overshopped and her bag was oversized and she was struggling to carry it up n down the stairs! I couldnt leave my bag unattended to help carrying hers so we were in such a ma95ara situation lol!!  La walah at that moment, i felt like cryin coz our bags were heavy n there were too many steps in that narrow stairs n ppl were pushing us around since it was rush hour lol! NYC AINT FRIENDLY AT ALL I TELL U!!
