Upon Arrival
To send me off to college, my family planned a road trip starting from New York. Soon after we settled down, we had a barbecue at the Korean Town. I was surprised by the overcrowded streets, and fortunately we had a reservation to opt out of the long waiting time.
After the hearty dinner, we drove to New Jersey to view this lovely Big Apple at night.
A Day Full Of Museum
The next day, New York greeted us with flourishing businesses and the Museum of Modern Art. Though I am not the kind of person who followed the audio tour or read through the pamphlet, I was fond of the creative artworks of Andy Warhol's portrait of Marilyn Monroe, the spraying, the arrangement, and all the other unidentifiable objects.
Then we came to visit the largest and most popular museum in the States--the Met. In addition to the Egyptian exhibition, the European paintings, and work of Vincent van Gogh, I liked the photography and the fashion show the most. With a great variety of exhibits, I am positive that most people can be inspired by this great collection of art.
After appreciating the beauty, we walked through Central Park (a great place for the Pokemon Go lovers i.e. my mom and brother) and reached the museum from "Night At The Museum." If you are fond of earth science, fossils, and huge models, this is the right place for you.
Tours Around NYC
The Statue of Liberty is always on the tourist's checklist. As soon as we got off the ship, my brother and I started to leave our footprints all around the statue. (My brother always aspires to wander throughout the city or places he gets to visit.)
Another stop of the tour.
Night at Times SquareThen I saw my first mind-blowing Broadway show--"Wicked." As someone who sleeps through artsy shows, I was surprised to find myself highly focused throughout the performance. Following the highs and lows of "Wicked," I began thinking about people who bumped into my life. And many times, it is the sheer coincidence that turns everything around and changes us for the better.
After the night in Times Square, we headed to Baltimore!
The Baltimore Orioles
My brother and dad are both baseball fans of the Baltimore Orioles, so they were hyped about the game of the Orioles versus the Red Sox.
This is the first part of our travel log and there is more to come!
