The melting pot and other random drugs






We arrived in the big apple around 2pm friday afternoon, courtesy of greyhound bus lines. From here the two bewildered boys ventured down fifth avenue on the way to our hostel located on the corner of 95th street and west end. There we witnessed hot girls, black guys, spanish ppl, and got offered cocaine...life couldnt get any better.

We also saw the museum of natural history where i: swam with dolphins, fought a bear, a lion, and then migrated to the rainforest, checked out minerals and gems, and kicked the largest meteor on earth.

We went on to china town where we both enjoyed delicious gereral tzo's chicken probably made of the skinned cat in the window, however the delicious sauce made it worth the 10 bucks. I went solo to the empire state building, after 2 hours and 86 floors i was at teh observatory deck.

We got a wonderful bike-taxi ride to time square from an irish fellow, 15 bucks for both of us which was a good deal, he said that fat ppl arent allowed..or he charges alot.

We also went on the staten island ferry and saw the statue of liberty, from there we went to Wall St. and saw the NYSE. Then we went to liberty st. and saw the WTC well...what remains, not much to see actually..but paid respects.

The subways in nyc are really confusing, the only reliable ones are the a,c, and e trains everything else is a long shot and you need an asian man to help you get back to the right street..However the streets are very easy to navigate, streets east to west, aves north to south.

o yea the ferry pics

we saw a cool hobo dancing in washington square park...id hire him if i were this band...even if the pay was..shoes.

I have more pics but too lazy to put them up. ask me about them!
