02-03 May 2009 - New Jersey and NYC

i braved the risk of swine flu....
made my way down to the city!
haha...not that i don't care~
actually i'm already in the affected area!
it's all good and under control here...
1st time exploring around New Jersey area!
it's really fun meeting up a friend over a weekend...
in somewhere both of us know very little or nothing about!
the drivers in New Jersey are simply crazy!!!
fast...aggressive...impatient...dangerous...
an eye-opener for me...
still an inexperience driver compared to them...
found some interesting places in NJ...
one of them is a huge Japanese marketplace
of course...which i spent quite abit of time...
eating...shopping...it's like Meidi-ya or Isetan...
yet a different name and location!
i realised how much i missed having those food!
ohhh...the best thing was...
i found my favourite peach water from Japan too!!!
"JT Momo no Tennesui"
it's so much like a small Japanese town there...
makes me realised there's alot of Japanese in US....
especially in NJ~
or maybe it's just the place....
where they can get stuffs like home
i think if there's a Singapore eatery around,
there will be a lot of Singaporean too!
it's just not happening in Albany...
******
in NYC, with the swine flu alert...
nothing is stopping tourists going around!!
it's still packed with people...
things are still up and going...
only the weather was bad for us....
raining...raining...raining...
i guess i can never get bored with NYC~
everytime i just feel everything's new or changed...
having not enough time to explore...
don't mind doing the same things again...
there always something i have to go back to NYC for!!
AND....surprise~surprise~ i find new things EVERYTIME~
well, if only Orchard Road could be the same...
it would be so boring....
easier to find things to do or places to go!
