Ok, wow, I really wasn’t expecting to take that long to make a pt.2. I was busy with my internship so I’m so sorry for anyone waiting for pt.2.

Day 2 was really enjoyable, I started off the day with eating my hotel breakfast and enjoying the view that came with the room, which was very beautiful. This is why I love cities, everything is not only walking distance, but you have a nice view of skyscrapers like this. Maybe it’s because I’m from a town in the South and don’t have a city like this but I envy those who live in cities.I didn’t walk to my next destination it was a bit to0 far for that. Therefore I took an Uber to a place I really wanted to go too. It’s called the Museum of Ice Cream, it’s like this pop up museum where you can take selfies and interact with things related to ice cream, and I was really not expecting what I saw. Everything there is so well planned and it’s fun for everyone, even adults. I heard it was a fun area and really popular and they weren’t wrong. When you first enter you’re greeted with a nice gift shop related to the Museum of Ice Cream. Once you finally go inside you’re asked to write your “ice cream” name on a name tag, but I can’t really find anything ice creamy with my name, what would I say? The walls however had hints using celebrities so I did what I obviously had to do. I said Kanye Zest. After that you come into a pink room with lot of bottles. The whole experience is really pink. You do get ice cream in this room, which is good, it’s between Cherry Sorbet or some other flavor, I want to say vanilla? However, the cherry sorbet was really strong for my liking, it tasted like medicine. That’s the thing with any cherry product for me. Then you approach the “Alice and Wonderland Table Room.” That’s not what it’s really called but it gives that vibe. The food is fake as well as the balloons that are “tied” to the table and “float”. This room serves popsicles, so by the slim chance you HAVE finished your ice cream, you got popsicles. A pink glow seen from the “Alice and Wonderland Table Room” will get you ready for the next room which I call “Hot Pink Room that Made My Eyes Adjust in a Really Weird Way, and Oh Look, There’s a Door.” Yeah it’s kind of long, I need to shorten it. Past that is a room that looks exactly like a subway, which is kind of weird but it’s fun. I call this room, “Subway.” It’s a very short name that gets straight to the point. Get off the pink subway and there are clouds, it’s a very peaceful room compared to the room you walk in after the clouds. Point being said the “Clouds….clouds…..clouds” room is very peaceful and has bored games in there for some reason, but again, the clouds aren’t real tis merely an illusion of your eyes. Then comes the banana room. I like bananas and all, but this was way too many bananas. I call this room, “Banana Split.” To get to the next room you can either go through the door like a boring person orrrr you can go through a sprinkle tunnel like some cool…person. You choose. You pop out of that tunnel into a room of letters, thought you were out of school? NOPE. But the letters are cool, there are questions such as the picture below where you can write. We’ll call this room “You Mortal Thought You Were Done With School HahAhaHaAh” Then is a room where you get more ice cream, this place is quite literally a wonderland for ice cream lovers. The pop ups in this room are fun, it’s made to look like you can deconstruct the wall by scooping it and pray that it doesn’t fall on you. So welcome to the “Scoopy Room.” Then is another pink room with the history of ice cream where you can chill and eat the yummy cake flavored ice cream provided to you in the previous room and learn about ice cream, this is the “History Room AKA You Mortal Thought You Were Done With School HahAhaHaAh PT.2” After that you go through the rainbow tunnel and find yourself to the “Slide to Nowhere” room. You take a slide, too somewhere you don’t know about. Fun right! You slide down and you’re now in “Cave Man Room” where you can get more ice cream, this time soft served and also a DJ Booth down there for some reason. I skipped because I ate way too much so I passed that cause no thanks and found myself in “I’m a Clown for Turning Down Cotton Candy” room with cotton candy. There were games in that room, like a carnival. Then is the “Inner Child” room where there are swings, a ping pong table, monkey bars, and a bowl of sprinkles, as well as basketball to comfort that sweet child in all of us. Lastly, we enter the sprinkle pit, the “Sprinkle Pool that May be Full of Pee but I Don’t Care because Childhood Needs Fulfillment.”

Wow, that was…..a lot. After the Ice Cream Museum I decided to explore a bit more before lunch which made me stumble upon a very strange store with very strange items. I did buy the light bulb with the heart, that is way too cute to turn down, I also wanted the fish jug but that wouldn’t fit in my suitcase so I passed.

After that little shopping experience I headed to Chinatown for lunch. I was going to dine at Shanghai 21, and it was very popular because I had to wait a long time for seating, so while waiting I explored Chinatown and it was a whole different experience. I found a shop called Panda Ma inc and bought a ton of stuff, like a fan cause it was hot. I really wanted this sword thing but again, suitcase problems and would definitely NOT fit. I also got thirsty because the heat was starting to get to me again. I did find a place called Pink Lady Japanese Cheese Tart and I got a Japanese Cheese Tart which was Obe flavored and a Matcha tea right along with it. To my despair it was really hot in that store as well because apparently the AC was down. But finally I got my table at Shanghai 21 and had soup pork dumplings and Shanghai authentic noodles, they were so nice and gooey. I couldn’t savor it for too long, I had a busy day and I needed to catch a Broadway show.

I went to go watch Lion King, which I have to say was so amazing. They used people as animals and the way they made these people appear as animals was breathtaking. Not only that but it was a bit humorous.

After the amazing performance, I got girl rained on. I was fortunately by a Gap store, I didn’t buy anything but it was a nice shelter for a while. After the rain I decided to chill in the hotel before going to “Little India”. I spotted an XG board which made me happy because I love that group. (I’m looking at that photo and I see Elmo’s distressed face) I found an Indian restaurant in the little India named Saravanaa Bhavan, which is one of the top vegetarian Indian restaurants in the world. It lived up to the title because the food was fire. I ordered a Idli and Sambar and dosa which was so big. I ate the dosa before taking the photo. I was kind of sad that I ate the food before taking a picture to brag to my friends. However the couple sitting next to me was happy to let me photograph their dosa. I also went into Trader Joe’s for the first time, in Arkansas we don’t have those so I never grew up with a Trader Joe’s. I got some things, Trader Joe’s is just like the Fresh Market of Arkansas. Overall it was a pretty tiring day so I instantly went to sleep.
