New York Day 3: Last Day to Party

Monday was a lazy day. I slept in and we just walked around the city. We went to 5th Ave. and did some window shopping. This was my favorite window... :)

We went in to Tiffany's! WOW! I wish I would have been allowed to take pictures inside the store because it was amazing! We saw a giant 11 carat ring. It was so big it looked fake. I don't understand why someone would want something that extreme....

We also found Carnegie Hall. It was sort of by accident. We were looking for a hotel that we could sit down in and rest for a little while but instead we found a famous concert hall.


Then we went back to Chinatown and did a lot of shopping. That was exciting! It was fun to watch Felix (he was one of our TAs and basically our guide for the day) try and haggle with the shop keepers. They wouldn't budge and he just kept pushing.

That night a big group of us went and got Ethiopian food for dinner. Would would have thought it would have been as good as it was. I never would have thought that Ethiopia had such good food. It was pretty basic stuff also. Chicken, beef, corn, beans, beets, collard greens. It was like the original soul food! Either way we all had fun!

Good times!
