Some photos here...

Taking a walk down 84th street near my place. The houses here are famous for their lavish Christams decorations. These are just some shots that we took but oh man they are really very beautiful, breathtaking! I never thought that people are that willing to spend so much on Christmas but apparently they do here. And bear in mind, these are houses unlike in Singapore's Orchard Road where the government do the spending and the decorating of the streets. They're not for competition either, it's purely the appreciation they want to show for Christmas Day. Didn't take much pictures though, the camera's life was hanging by the line at that time :p

See that big blown-up snowman at the background? There are lots of them around.

Next, these are photos taken at New York City, featuring the old World Trade Centre site, where they just started the new project of Freedom Towers at exactly the same site.

The photos on display are pictures shot by onlookers when the tragedy occurred. I really wonder, there are people there dying and screaming, and they can still take photos? But of course without them, we wouldn't be able to imagine and relive the exact scenes of the event.

Then now you'll see my poor effort at getting the Statue of Liberty into my camera lense. The Statue is located at the sea. I seriously didn't know that! We had to take a ferry across to Staten Island and everyone squeezed around each other to try to take picture with the "Goddess of Freedom" while we pass by her. Whew. We can only squeeze a really miniature statue into ours, but still, better than nothing huh? ;)

The Statue from afar, still near the shore.

Looking back at Manhattan's shoreline.

Getting closer.

The closest we could get. The wind was so strong! I had to take on one of my character again - The Lioness :p

Man, I love this picture. Behind my mom and bro is the famous Brooklyn Bridge. And look at the sky, it's so clear and blue! In the middle of winter somemore, can't take it -.-

Next, we went to Rockefeller Centre, back to NYC. Actually it's famous for its skating rink but there were too many people there so we had to make do with the huge Christmas tree.

Angels lining a sidewalk behind me :)

Then, now it's Times Square time! The place is real big!! Walking down the road, you'll see many billboards around, flashing so many advertisements. And of course, you can't miss the crowd either.

Down Broadway.

This is the great clock tower, I can't find out the name!! It's where people gather together to count down for Christmas as well as New Year.

Tired of walking? Need to take a rest? Come to this place where you can do your business here. I think this is a newly opened place. I have to use 'place' because it's really not a shop though its whole setting is like one, and it's not just any other restroom either. I forgot to take the entrance. I guess that would be more impactful than just this :p

That's all for now. Will wait for the snow to come in and more pictures to be taken then :)
