Yesterday left us with an action packed adventure of walking around, eating and seeing a show. we returned outright exhausted.
anyways, the next day, saturday, we decided to try the bus out too. amos joined us, and we went out to wait for the bus. sadly, we had just missed it, and we didn’t know how often it came, so we settled in to wait. it took about 30 min for it to come again, but at least we got these 2 pictures out of it.

so the bus took us to port authority, which is a fantastic bus terminal. the busses go up ramps and arrive onto the second floor. when you get out, you go right down some stairs from the arrivals level into a big hall. its pretty cool. anyways, we arrived and as soon as we got outside, i saw this. i thought it was pretty fun sign.

by the time we arrived into town, we were pretty hungry. we had a late start. so we were walking around looking for food, and found a cool looking french style of bakery/restaurant. the only pictures i got from that was pictures of dessert, of course. they were delicious.

so after we ate, we were close to a store called uniqlo.

anyways, noa and her mom rushed off and we started looking around. turns out, uniqlo is AWESOME.
they had a big sale on. there were 3 levels, and it seems every time we turned a corner, there was more store. i think we ended up spending a few hours in there, and i even found some stuff i liked. as we were leaving, i got this picture of noa’s dad. i really like it.

the dinner and company was great. it was a very delicious italian restaurant. we got out of dinner late, took a taxi, and took the ferry home. yay!
the second day was great. though a lot of shopping. therefore the lack of pictures. i also forgot to mention that i have a separate wall and window posts going up after i detail all of our daily adventures.
hang tight for more exciting pictures to come.
