New York (Day 2)

Date: 6th June 2016, Monday 
Time: 8.27am 

(I'm going to be writing about yesterday xD Maybe that's what's going to happen for all my posts..) 

Assalaamu'alaikum and good morning! 

Yesterday, we didn't really have much of a plan but Mummy wanted to drive into 'the Village' where the outside of the FRIENDS' apartment was. It wasn't the set, but it was basically the fake 'outside' and at the bottom of the apartment there was this little cafe called 'The Little Owl' if I'm not mistaken. 

The first thing we did was have lunch at this diner bc Mum wanted to use the bathroom, and it was for customers only. As usual, we ordered too much and had to have takeaway. The food was good though. Our waitress was egyptian and said "Apa khabar?" to us xD (Makes me wonder how obvious it is we're malay) 

Afterwards we just hung outside of that café I said and took pictures. 

Then, we went back home and then went back out to our dad's friend's house. It was 3 stories tall and it was quite cozy! It was comfortable finding someone who was also malay lol x) He took us down the street to this park where he showed us the Manhattan Skyline view. It was very pretty!

We could see Times Square and the Empire State Building, and a lot of other cool buildings. Then it started to rain! So we quickly made our way back. Thankfully my sister and I came back before it started to rain heavily, but my other family members weren't so lucky. 

While waiting for dinner we played with the family's daughter, Marissa. She showed us around her house (like her basement where she plays. It was super cool! She had this device that had the same function as Siri, but it was called Alexa instead. You could ask it any question and to play songs and such) and we played the game of life. Didn't  manage to finish it though bc we were called down to dinner. 

Dinner was good! There was lobster and lamb and grilled salmon and chicken chop. We also had strawberries, cherries and blackberries at the end. Yum. 
Alhamdulillah, it was a good dinner! 

Then we played 'What I'd bring to a picnic' with Marissa. Kakngah and Kaklang fell alseep later and so Marissa, my brother and I started to play with an 1000 piece puzzle. But we were stopped bc my parents wanted to leave, so we cleaned up. Then we bid our goodbyes and went home. 

Overall, the view of the skyline was enjoyable at least. 

Today is the first day of Ramadhan! Ramadhan Mubarak! (First time spending it overseas owo) We're going to Six Flags, in sha allah. 

Well, that's all for now. I'll write about today tomorrow. 

Assalaamu'alaikum! 
End: 8.48am
