New York New York

We have been back for a week and the half and I still have not blogged about my New York trip! What a slacker...;)

New York was so much fun especially with our great host Andreas and Lin Li. They made this trip SO memorable and have got us hooked to Strawberry Mojitas.. errr, yes, that is an alcoholic drink... but we LOVE it.....

During this great trip, we did the regular sight seeing including Times Square, Central Park, Rockefella Center. Chinatown.. Our favourite restaurant is Noonya. Super great Prawn Mee. If you are in the area, you HAVE to try it. They also have super Rojak.

Gordon's favourite was also the Gelato in Little Italy. Imported gelato.. yummmm... Here is a picture of the girls in front of the gelato place..

We also watched a symphony by Mahler. Super presentation. And we watched a broadway show... "The Producers". A very funny show. Worth watching. Was planning on catching " The Odd Couple" but it was sold out...


Of course, we had to see Wall Street.. Gordon was pretty excited. Too bad we could not go inside. So, it's just pictures outside.






Our last big stop was the Statue of Liberty. This was an almost whole day process. Too much security checks. It was interesting to be so close to the Statue.



Of course, we ate a lot too!! We had dimsum, greek food, good breakfast.... yum yum yumm





Oh yeah, we found a place that sells "Loong Yook" in New York Chinatown!!! SO very cool. I think New York is the only place that sells fresh "Loong Yook". Does everyone know what this is?? Here is a picture I stole from Lin Li's blog..;)









By the way, I took a total of 461 pictures... talk about being obsessive.......

I can't wait for another vacation...................

We LOVED Boston!!!

We are back from our 7 day trip to Boston and New York. This first blog will be about Boston..:)

Boston is such a pretty city. Clean, still loads of construction but everything seems so close. We bought a 1 day city pass which allowed us to take the Duck Tours and the Bean Trolley and also gave us entrance to the New England aquirium and Paul Revere's house. We particularly liked the history of Boston. Was conparing it to SF and seems that SF has so little history. We were able to go to Mike's Pastry too. This place has great canoli's... yum! We had clam chowder and lobster roll for lunch at Legal Seafood.. So so good!!











oh!! and We caught a Red Sox game against Yankees at Fenway Park. This was a blast. The Red Sox fans are such fans and they would boo any Yankees that played... but, it was fun!!

Our other hightlight was the Duck Tours. When I mentioned to Gordon that we were going to go for a Duck Tour, he said " Can we skip the duck tour? I don't think I wanna see ducks." I started laughing.... Gordon can be funny! I can tell now that he doesn't like ducks....
