I want to wake up in that city, that city that doesn't sleep

Hello New York!

Laying on the bed in our room at Hotel 17. Yes, we're here. Over here it is 01:07 and in Holland it's 07:07 but we're not even that tired.
Well, lets start with the flight. We got to Schiphol in Amsterdam by train together with my mom, sister and boyfriend. After we got through the check-in, we had time to say goodbye to them. Guess what, the first security check and we were picked out. We were worried if we could still make the flight but in the end there was plenty of time. When we got to the gate and passed the security scans there was an other problem. The door to the plane had been opened. So we had to do the security routine all over again. The plane to London was pretty packed but we only had to be on for half an our.
In London we took a bus to our terminal. We had to wait 5 hours for the flight to New York but there was plenty to see. Chanel, Guess, Cartier, Mulberry, Tod's, Tiffany's, Starbucks, Mac, etc etc. The plane to New York was very empty luckily. We had a whole row (4 seats) for ourselves. That was great because we could lay down and try to get some sleep in the 8 hour flight.
Arrived at New York we took a taxi. It still hasn't fully come trough that we are actually IN NYC! Our hotel is fine. The walls have very crazy wall paper and everything looks antique, haha. Off course we got the wrong room with one bed. So we had to switch rooms.
Tomorrow it really starts! Now we're gonna take a small walk trough the neighborhood and get something to eat, we're all hungry!!
And my God, I have never seen my head more ugly then when I woke up in the plane and looked in the toilet mirror. Everything looked weird, haha! On the plane to London the women asked if we wanted sweet or savory snacks. We were like...uhh..savory? But we figured it means sweet or salty. We just couldn't understand the British lady, she was so fast! :)
Here are some pictures we took when we got out of the plane. C Ya tomorrow

  1. Haha, leuk, wel logisch dat jullie er uit worden gepakt bij security, ik bedoel, samen zien jullie er toch wel heel gevaarlijk uit. Vooral op die laatste foto trouwens. Hoop van jou ook nog veel leuke verhalen, want t leven op school is niet heel avontuurlijk. veel plezier vandaag!!
