NYC

      At night there was a Latin event. One of the biggest tin American Legend was performing that night, he was brilliant, it was spectacular I was completely amazed at how much talent this man had.   

      While I was exploring these buildings a bird flew and stopped right in front of me, I thought it was beautiful so I took a picture of the bird. When I took a picture a bunch of people came towards me to take a picture as well.  

      After that, we went to empire state building and saw Manhattan, Brooklyn and New Jersey. Although the day was kind of foggy I still took good pictures. I liked seeing all of those building. The man there which was explaining what these buildings were, he was explaining to us that all the people that come to work in Manhattan come from New Jersey and the Bronx, not all of them, but most of them.

      The next day we went to Times Square. Oh My God, it was insane I loved it! I couldn’t believe how many shows and gigs were going on there. All over Ads and people, there was a man dressed like a cowboy and he earned a living by all the tips he got of the women taking pictures with him all the time. I was full of excitement that day.

 When Natalie and my mum saw my ice cream, they also bought ice cream from that place, I was so busy eating my own I didn’t even try theirs. 

      I bought these glasses for $5 in the street, I thought they were funky so I wore them a few times, anyway, there was a selling ice cream, I got the most delicious ice cream I ever had! Yum it was so good. His ice cream was so heavenly.

So while we were just walking we saw a restaurant that had just opened, the waitress was very kind, so we sat there and I ordered an Iced Tea, but that iced tea was way too bitter I had to put 3 spoons of sugar in that drink. I was excited to see the rest of the city. 

A couple of hours passed and we wanted to see the neighborhood and just walk around, I was looking at how different things are New York than Cyprus. I saw this truck and it looked interesting because trucks here don’t have any drawings on them. So I took a picture. That say was sunny and fresh, there were workers taking out sodas out of the truck. 

On the 16th of June we flew to America. When we arrived we were tired, hungry and just wanted to sleep. When we got to JFK, my older sister was waiting for us, because she used to live there. A couple of minutes after, we were heading to Manhattan and we dropped my sister to her University.
