we spent the rest of the afternoon wandering around. we went and visited the people i used to work with (whom i miss very much), we stopped at grand central station for a gander, we went to eataly- which is like an italian food emporium but it was packed to the maximum so we basically walked thru and out, then we went into times square and visited the disney store, and finally met my friends for din. yay! i miss them immensely!! we wanted to go to this place called barbuto but they were already booked for the night so we just had to walk around and found this little hole in the wall italian place. it was good, nothing spectacular. as we started walking back to the apt, it started sprinkling, by the time we got off the subway, it was a torrential downpour! we waited around for a min to see if it'd let up at all but it didn't. it just kept pouring. so, we decided to take a taxi home. the next day, we walked the highline. it's an old train line that they've turned into a walkway with lots of greenery and they have little food and art boothes and stuff. by then, we had worked up our appetite for lunch!
barbuto. roasted chicken. amazing.

sunday, we went to the drag races
umm... fast. bout 320 mph fast. it started out as a nice, partly cloudy day and all of a sudden, this huge, black cloud started moving towards us. it came fast and hit hard. they had to stop the races and everyone started rushing back to their cars. well, once we finally found the van and were completely soaking wet, i went to use my phone. NOT THERE! my dad tried calling... nothing. started freaking out inside.. all of the pics i had taken on the entire trip were on my phone. finally, i dumped out my entire bag and sure enough, it was on the bottom. hallelujah! it rained, or rather, poured for about half an hour and then cleared up all nice again. races resumed and all were happy campers. on the way home, we started passing this place called the polar cub. i didn't know what it was but i said "hey, we gotta stop for the polar bear!" it ended up being an ice cream shop and obviously i had to get a giant cone with sprinkles!!
mmm! the polar bear would be so proud :)
for din: itsa pizza pie!
little critters everywhere in jersey. this little guy was just hangin out in the yard
annnd then, we had a million hour flight home. not really. but it sure felt like it. sat in the airport for 5 hours, flight was 5, and then waited another hour for justin to arrive... long day.
