= My Trip to New York =

My trip to New York was fun, but wet. It rained a lot while we were in New York. I got really wet. We first got dropped of at Chinatown and looked at all the shops. We bought an umbrella for ten dollars, but it broke the second time we opened it. We had to walk in the rain for a long time. All of the Chinese things and stuff wasn't really new to me because I'm from China. I thought it was boring in Chinatown because I've seen it all before. We walked over to Little Italy and saw all of the restaurants. The Italian people were nice and friendly. It was almost time to meet at the Buddhist Temple to walk to the Bowery Mission. When we got to the mission we went and sat to watch another school sing. When they were done singing some guys got in a fight. We sang and then left. We got onto the bus and ate lunch on it. Then we got dropped off a couple blocks away from Times Square, and walked the rest of the way. When we got to the Trump Tower we went in and went to the bathrooms. The bathrooms were really nice. Then we went to the Rockefeller Center and we went to the top. It was foggy so we didn't see much. After we that we walked to the Apple Store. We went in and looked at all the computers and Ipads. Then we walked over to FAO Schwarz and got some candy. It was really big and crowded. Then we went to the Rockefeller Center and we went to the top. It was foggy so we didn't see much. After we went there we decided to walk to Times Square. It was a really long walk and we got really cold. When we got to Times Square we went to Sephora and I bought eyeliner. We had almost an hour before we had to meet everyone, so we went to Ripley's Believe It Or Not and saw some really weird things. We walked over to a souvenir shop and bought a shirt. After that we walked to Prontos Pizza and ate with everybody. After we ate we walked to the subway and got on. We had to switch cars and it was very crowded and very confusing. We got off the subway and went to the ferry. When we got on the ferry we went out to the deck and looked over the railing. The boys were spitting over the railing into the ocean. The ferry was very big. When we got off we went to the bus and left New York. I slept most of the way home. I was very tired. I had a lot of fun.

= Advice =


 * Don't fill up on food at Burger King because there is good food at Chinatown.
 * Don't buy an expensive umbrella at Chinatown.
 * You have to buy a pork bun at one of the Chinatown restaurants. It is very good.
 * I would go to Little Italy to get a conoli, but buy the smaller one because the regular size is very expensive.
 * At the Rockefeller Center when you get to the top take lots of pictures.
 * Don't go to the Apple Store because it was very crowded.
 * When you get on the ferry, don't spit over the railing. It's very gross and it goes on the railing at the bottom.
