Thursday in NYC

If only I could get online at a time before 12:30am... oh well.
After sleeping in and chilling out till about 3pm, we finally left the apartment and went to the Air Force musuem (or whatever it is called). The museum is the aircraft carrier Intrepid or something like that. We didn't see a whole lot because it closed at 5pm and dad seemed to think the actual ship and all that historic stuff was "boring". Anyway, got a whole bunch of photos of old planes and stuff. Also went on some "cosmic coaster" virtual ride - "in 4D"! We sat in some chairs that vibrated and moved around a little, and we also had the 3D glasses. It was wacky. IT was set in space and it was a roller coaster. It went of the rail a few times too. That gave me a little scare. The school kids behind us were screaming the whole time. You'd think I would freak out, but I was quiet. Anyway, we left soon after as it closed.
We then went to a resturaunt with asian foods and I got some sushi. It was an interesting "New Yorker" roll with salmon, lettuce, tomato, cream cheese and stuff around the outside, like the stuff you'd find on an everything bagel. Also tried some sushi with some fish in it... It was gross! I spent the rest of the time gnawing on ice.
We then went walking around, and we went to the Nintendo Center and I got cute stuff, yay. I got an Umbreon plushie, Palkia plushie, Darkrai figurine and a Suicune figure. If you haven't figured it out already, Suicune is my favourite Pokemon. You may not have noticed, but it is in my MSN email, AIM screen name, various forum names...
Anyway, we then pretty much went back. That's it. We got back around 8pm. Seriously. That took ages.
We pretty much chilled. Yup. Now I'm online. Exciting stuff.

Some other things...
At the drugstore, the shaving blades are behind the counter with the cigarettes. The beer isn't.
Rush hour is crazy. 6 lanes packed with cars. It is more worthwhile to walk.
You can't have peace in Manhattan. You always hear honking on the streets (despite the signs saying "Don't honk $350 fine") and sirens are blaring often. Sometimes people will yell at each other from their cars.
No one uses spray on deodourant much. It's about the roll on. If only people in NZ would do that. You girls know what I mean but not being able to BREATHE in the changing rooms...

It is interesting walking the streets. Really, it is. My dad has lots of amusing stories which I would type about if I had time, but really. It's interesting.
