We go back to New York, wake up at 7 am and have breakfast at the hostel. Two and a half hours later we enjoy again the view from New Yersey of New York before crossing the tunnel. The bus leaves us near the subway entrance on 34th and 7th.

We leave our backpacks and return to Union Square. We spend part of the day shopping.

We eat pasta and salad in an Italian restaurant. Then we go to OMG, they have recommended us this store if you want to buy a Levi's at a good price, finally we don't buy anything.

We go into Forever 21 here we do bite. On the way to Times Square we enter a souvenir shop on the corner of Korea Town. We passed again by Madison Square Garden, too bad the basketball season didn't start, it would have been a great plan.

Times Square amazes us again, lights and screens everywhere, there are even more people than the other day. I don't have words to describe the feeling of being there, absolutely essential.

We go home for dinner, after visiting the supermarket. Supermarkets in the USA are curious, the refrigerated area is a huge cold room where the customer enters to take the food he needs, so a jacket is not superfluous to do the shopping. In general, the fruit is very tasty. The products are much more expensive, so cooking at home is not as cheap as in other countries.
