i arrived in nyc last night and my cousin david picked me up. i'm staying at his place in flushing, near queens. met my grandaunt for the first time and she looks like my granny. i met some interesting people on the flight so it wasn't so boring. i'll update later tonight.
i'm hungry. breakfast time.
pics: (double clink) the UN building; statue of liberty
update: i took a 3 hr boat ride around the island with cousin david. the city is really pretty and the statue of liberty looks smaller than my impression of it. the boat went around the hudson river. i was trying to beat jet lag on the boat and had to get a coffee. later we walked down to union square and to soho area for a bit where i spied The Strand bookshop and vowed to return the next day. we went to little italy where there was some sort of festival going on and we ate pasta for dinner. then we took the 7 train back to flushing, queens.
