New York

I går var vi en tur med toget i New York City. Det er altid en meget stor ting at komme derind, men for en gangs skyld var der ikke helt overfyldt med mennesker. Og vi prøvede nogle nye steder og ting. 

På W 30th Street ligger butikken Blikis hvor man kan købe afrikansk stof. Som jeg jo elsker! Det var VIRKELIG ikke let at bestemme sig, men jeg gjorde mit bedste og tog 4 stykker stof med hjem. Så bliver det sjovt at se hvad det ender som!

Yesterday, we took the train to New York City. It's always a very big thing to go there, but for once it wasn't totally crowded. And we tried some new places and stuff. 

On W 30th Street, a shop called Bilkis sells African fabric. Which I love, as you know! It was extremely difficult making up my mind, but I did my best and took 4 pieces of fabric home with me. It will be fun to see what it ends like! 

Vi kom også i garnbutik. Ikke en jeg havde besøgt tidligere. Min søster fandt "Downtown yarns", en hyggelig lille butik på Lower East Side. Jeg købte lidt souvenirgarn - noget fin bomuld. 

We also visited a yarn shop. Not a shop I've been to earlier on. My sister found "Downtown yarns", a cozy little shop on Lower East Side. I bought a bit of souvenir yarn - some pretty cotton.  

Derefter tog vi kabelvognen til Roosevelt Island - det koster sølle 4 dollars hver vej, og der er den smukkeste udsigt. Det kan virkelig anbefales!

Then we took the cable car to Roosevelt Island. It only cost 4 dollars for a one-way ticket, and the view is amazing. It is highly recommended!

Hvad byen manglede i mennesker, gjorde den op for med varme. SOM vi svedte! Varmt og fugtigt er det her (som I kan se nåede det også at blive RIGTIG fugtigt senere på aftenen!), men dejligt er det selvfølgelig. 

I dag skal vi mod nord og lidt koldere vejr. Det ser jeg virkelig frem imod!

What the city lacked in crowds, it had concerning the heat. We were sweating like crazy! It is hot and a bit wet here (as you can see, it became REALLY wet later in the evening!), but of course it's mostly nice. 

Today we will be going further North to temperatures a bit cooler. I'm looking forward to that!
