NYC: Top 10 Sites

Hey Bloggers! This is Ben joining in the blogging business. Don't expect too much from me, I don't plan to post consistently. I just felt in the mood to share with you what Kimi and I declare the TOP 10 NYC SPOTS VISITED.

There is a twist though. Since we didn't agree when ranking the top 10, I have just listed the top 10 in no particular order. Once you finish reading, check our anonymous answers and guess who liked what.

A. Top of the Roc. What amazing views! In our opinion, it is better than the empire state building. A must see.


B. Statue of Liberty. If you want to climb up and look out of her crown, you must get tickets months in advance. Fortunately, my parents are travel experts and got tickets way in advance for us. Thanks Mom & Dad!



C. Food on Foot Tour. This fun guy named Cory started his own business showing people the best small restaurants in certain neighborhoods. We stopped at 10 different spots in the Hell's Kitchen area. If you want the know the specific locations, let us know. We'll hook you up.


D. Wicked. My brother Michael is quoted to say watching Wicked was "pure misery." Kimi and I do not agree with though. We thought it was a fun musical. What also made the show fun is my brother Justin won a lottery getting us cheap front row tickets! We weren't expecting to even go to a show that night!


E. Tandem Bikes in Central Park. Kimi's dream ever since we've been married is to have a tandem bike. This experience brought her closer to that dream. We still don't own one, but we had fun on it! (Tandem bike are hard by the way!!!)


F. Madam Tousou's Wax Musem. This was surprisingly very fun. The wax figures look so real! Check out this pic:


G. Magic show at FAO Swhartz Toy Store. While we have no pictures, this guy was amazing! We ended up buying 2 magic tricks from the guy. The toy store itself is a fun spot to check out because employees are very interactive with customers, showing them to cool games/toys they have. It is right next to the Apple Store close to central park.

H. Frozen Hot Chocolate at Serendipity. WOW. That is all I can say. This was some amazing dessert (or appetizer in our case.) Definitely check this place out. You must make reservations beforehand. Serendipity is known for their desserts. You can't just order dessert though, so plan in a full meal there as well. It's a little pricey, but worth it.


I. Walking across Brooklyn Bridge. This was pretty fun and for me surprisingly very busy. It was fun though.


J. Times Square. Always a fun place to walk and check out the lights and TV screens. Very cool.

Ok guys. Now it's your turn to guess who is who. Sorry, the winner doesn't get anything. Just guess for fun.

I loved the pictures, and laughed my head off when I saw the random Asian pictures, especially of Abbey in a pot. Grandpa grimishes ever time he sees that. I don't get how to guess...
