So my mom and I left around 7:40am on Sunday December 27th. We took a bus that runs from Bel air (hometown) to 46th and 6th. We got to New York are 10:30am and once we got off the bus and got our luggage, we headed to our hotel to check in and see if our room was ready.
We stayed at the Belvedere hotel for one night. It was a very nice hotel for being a bit on the older side. So we got to our room and not necessarily unpacked but got settled in and decided on what to do for lunch. After laying on the beds for maybe 5 minutes we decided to head put and explore the city.
On the way to lunch, we discovered that M&M World was very close and we went in! It was incredibly crowded, as expected. But we walked around and saw all the m&ms in all the tubes. It was insane, I wanted to get some but since that was the first place we stopped, I didn't feel like carrying it all day. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of M&M World.
After M&M World we found an unknown pizza place. Later to find out it was Sbarro. But regardless it was really good pizza, but I also really didn't eat anything before we left so I was starving.
After eating lunch we walked to Central Park where we saw the infamous Plaza hotel. Heres a picture of the magical hotel
Also on the way to Central Park we passed Tiffany and Co. and if you know anything about me, I'm obsessed with the movie Breakfast at Tiffany's with Audrey Hepburn. I got a good picture of the outside which was all decorated for Christmas/New Years
Sorry about the quality. A lot of these pictures were taken on Snapchat Camera.
But anyways, mom and I took a penny cab around Central Pack and it was very informative. The guy who was riding the bike was telling us all about the buildings around central park and the lake.
After Central Park, we walked all the way to the kate spade store on 5th avenue which was quite the walk. But we finally got there and it was the most beautiful store I've ever seen. Heres a picture of the outside.
The inside was so cute and bright. I got a new wallet and bangle. My wallet is black and gold polka dots and my bangle is silver with a small single spade symbol in the center.
On the way back to the hotel, mom and I decided to go to panera for some warm soup. After panera we walked to Rockefeller Center. But we passed Saks at Fifth Ave where they had an amazing holiday display. I got a good picture of the tree and one of the fountains...
After that we headed for dinner. First we wefe gonna try this mexican restaraunt but we discovered that neither of us were gonna find anything good to eat. So since olive garden was a block away we decided to go there for dinner. After dinner we headed back to the hotel and just chilled for the the night.
THE NEXT DAY!!!!
So its now Monday morning (December 28th) we wanted breakfast but werent sure where to go so we just started walking. We found this cute little diner that had really good waffles and home potatoes. After breakfast, we walked until we found one of those venders that sells scarfs and hats. Because someone (me) didn't bring a scarf or a hat or a heavy jacket to NYC. But thats besides the point. So I bought my scarf and hat and then we went on a bus tour. The tour went theough downtown. I got a good picture of the Freedom Tower which is an amazing.
As well as the Empire State Building
This trip to NYC was amazing and I hope to go back very soon. Thank you so much mom it was the best time.
