I got into NY to take my US Green Building stuff LEED exam. Prayed so hard to pass... and I did! yay!!! It was really a miracle that I pulled through this. I budgeted to take the exam twice... so now I have more money (AND TIME) to spend on walking around and doing some shopping!
Got into NYC on a Friday afternoon (day after Thanksgiving). Big sale everywhere. Apparently it's Black Friday sale (according to some Ting & Alice). City was so busy everywhere.
Times Sq Vicinity... Such a busy city. Never will find so many people in such a brightly lighted city anywhere in Singapore, Australia or Dubai!
Another Times Square shot
Met up with some really really old long time friends.... who took time off from his weekend work schedule to take me out!! Thank you! Appreciate that!
That was at some fancy desert place called Chika-something... can't even remember the name of the place.
And another desert place.... Seems that desert has better pictures... that's why no photos of main course meals.
Went to Macy's to visit Santa. OK I was really bored, but it was good fun to see Santa. I asked him for a new job.
Met Ting Ting and Alice yesterday on Monday. Everyone was away on thanksgiving weekend. Ting just got back from Toronto... Was really good catching up... Went to some little italian restaurant with huge huge pizzas. A small sized was equivalent to a XL in Melbourne! Yes it was THAT big.
Just the 3 of us...
Took a walk down to Rockafeller.... Too bad the Christmas tree was not lighted up yet!
Rockafeller!
42nd Street - Bryant Park... and Toys R Us
Charmin Toilets! They have this FREE public toilets on 42nd St. So weird! It was like a store... but it's free public toilets... Nice and reallly clean! With people to guide you to the different toilet numbers. How cool can New York get!
Central Park... Taking a walk back to the hotel!
Sobs... holidays are over for a while, but I'm off to London for another 5 more days! Then holidays would really be over.
Well... it'll be another 2 weeks at work, before I go to Istanbul with my visiting family! Woo hoo! Then it'll be Christmas in Dubai, then New Year Holiday... 2007 has gone by so so quickly! A year of travels for me.
