New York Pass - Day 2(Part 1)

I'm back with Day 2!

Day 2: Central Park Zoo + Madison Square Garden + Lincoln Centre + Empire State (again!)

First stop: Central Park Zoo

It's damn pai seh when we reached Central Park cos we could not find the entrance to the zoo. So we asked a passer-by and the entrance is like just there. Kok-eye.

Look as if only Shi and Anastas went to the zoo. Hmm I also dunno why Shi always got misleading photos. Haha.

Some cuties:

Polar bears again! This featured polar very cute de. For the past half an hour (i think) that we spent staring at it, it just did the same things repeatedly. It swam to and fro the same place again and again! Damn cute lahz!

A tranquil spot.

I must explain this. We went to Macy's to shop before we went to the Zoo. That's a bad choice anyway. Who carry shopping bags to a zoo?! Us.

We were not eating shit. Wahahaha. These almost-melted chocolates were proudly sponsored by Qian. Totally amused by the appearance.

Then, we went over to the children zoo. And, it welcomed us.

Qian and Shi having fun with the very dao goat.

How could we leave the zoo without some poser photos?? Haha.

Anyway the Central Park Zoo is very small. We finished it in no time. A matter-of-fact - our mandai zoo is really world-class.

Second stop: Madison Square Garden

This is not a garden! Haha. It's 'The World's Most Famous Arena" k! The home for New York Knicks, NY Liberty and NY Rangers. I think this has always been the ONE place that me and Shi must visit. Shi loves watching bball matches whereas I like boxing rings. Heh. I am eager to visit MSQ especially after I watched 'Cinderella Man'.

This is the famous bball court. But this is also the place where they will house the boxing ring. So sad. Can't see the boxing ring that day.

This is their theatre which also holds numerous concerts. It was only days away from Madonna's concert at that time of our visit.

The players' bar. Oh, nobody using it that day. If not, I don't think we are even allowed to step in there.

There's also a mini bball court inside the bar which the players can use it for practice.

The locker rooms for the bball teams!! The doors of the rooms are customed made to be higher because the players are so tall. So cool har. Yer, the tour din show us the normal locker rooms. You know that kind the boxers always use?? Haa.

This is the locker room for NY Rangers, coupled with a friendly tour guide.

The tour includes access to the club suites. As in the very expensive seats. Oh and these rich audience can enjoy private restrooms. Actually apart from the private restrooms, I don't know why these seats are suites. They are not even the first row seats.

I googled for MSQ and it is quite happening nowadays, with events such as Eric Clapton's concert, Championship Boxing (!!!), So you think you can dance, James Blunt's concert and etc.

Part 2 coming up! :P
