Welcome to NewYork , Sheikheeee

4 pages of maps was all that we had in our hand when we reached out of the bus station..I swear we spent only 40 bucks for a round trip from boston to newyork n 11.5 $ for ferry for statue of liberty n add to that 15$ for food expenses for the day..so in all 3000 rupees was all that it took to c newyork..ob!! * if clauses do apply :) be ready to WALK......

The walk of 40-50kms took its toll n tat we were down with leg spasm for the entire day after reaching boston was a diff story..

Times Square at 9 in the morning....

Empire State Building

The building stands transfixed in the 34th street looking like yet another skyscraper..we had to cross check with the name if we r picturing the rite one as there are many buildings tat hav been built of late with te same architecture..
