Day 38: New York City

- backdated entry -

Our official first day in New York City was a wet and cold day. It was raining right from the start and did not stop for the whole day. We spent the day shopping and went straight to SoHo. The shopping in NYC is excellent. We bought so many things on our first day. We got a large floor rug which we will use as a carpet in our study room and it cost only US$20 (on sale from US$70-80+) at Urban Outfitters.

And I bought myself the ultimate Kate Spade bag that I had dreamed of for so long - the white poppy canvas and boy was it a steal! There was an additional 25% off on top of the sale price. And I bought it at the boutique, not the outlet store.

Then we had dinner with my Aunty Amy's sister, Aunty Fanny and her husband Uncle Victor. They took us to a posh Korean restaurant and below is a picture of our first appetizer which cost about US$15-18. Yup... I was so marvelled by it that I had to take a picture for you all to see how BIG it was.

Then there is a picture of us below.
