Days 9,10 and 11



the past couple days we mostly just went to work at the museum and then walked around town. We went to The High Line, witch is an abandoned rail road track that was made into a park. It was so beautiful! I loved it! It is my new favorite place! But today we went to ground zero, they are building a memorial so we didn't get to see very much. It was sad to see where 9/11 actually happened. It made my stomach hurt thinking about what happened that day. I noticed ground zero was a lot quieter than the rest of the city, like people are still remembering as they walk passed the site of 9/11. It was super sad. We are still having a lot of fun, and i am enjoying getting to know my cousin!!

Well the past couple of days haven't been super busy. We've been working a lot on our projects, we start filming very soon. On Monday we did some exploring got to know the city a little better. We ended up in Chinatown and it's a lot scary at night, I wasn't a fan of that. Yesterday we went to the High Line, it was cool and very pretty. I remember Gabby telling me about it a few weeks before we went but I didn't expect it to look as beautiful as it did. I liked that at every little area it was like a whole different view of the city. Today we went to an art museum during work witch was nice. But some of the art confused me so much. Art really isn't my thing. After the museum we went to Planet Hollywood to eat, the food was alright but I liked all different stuff that were from movies. We also went to Ground Zero which was nothing like what I thought it would be, but that's okay!

These past 3 days seem like they have gone by so fast! Everything is just go, go, go. We had quite the adventure on Monday night when we decided to explore the city and see the nighttime lights. We ended up in Chinatown which gave us all a little scare. I guess were just not used to all the people out on the streets. ( I felt quite intimidated by some of the people.) Yesterday I must say was on of my favorite days in the city. It was very relaxing and wasn't very busy at all. Today is another story though. Now today has made it to my favorite day spot! Cynthia took us to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and I GOT TO SEE SOME REAL VAN GOGH!! OH MY GOODNESS. I was sooo excited. Vincent Van Gogh was such an amazing artist. He is hands down my favorite. Though I was kinda bummed that Starry Night wasn't at the museum. (Which happens to be my favorite painting.) She did tell me its in town.. That is definitely a MUST see before I leave. But I did get to see my second favorite painting which is, Wheatfield with cypresses. It was so beautiful. Wayyyyy better than in the pictures. Wow.
Until tomorrow, peace out
