My trip to New York - Part 1 I got back from my 9 days trip to New York a few days ago and I must say that this has been the most amazing trip of my entire life. I wanted to visit "The Big Apple" since I was a child and finally my dream comes true. My boyfriend and I were guested from a friend living there. His house is very close to Central Park so we were able to make a lot of walks through the park, both in cloudy and sunny days. The first day was really rainy and we opted out for visiting the first museum of our list, the Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art. The museum was awsome and we spent all the day there. After that we went out for dinner to a Japanese restaurant where we tasted a delicious ramen. The second day was even better than the first and maybe my favourite of the entire vacation. That was a beautiful sunny day and we went to visit the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. I must admit, I had no high expectation about that visit because I thought that this attraction was too touristic, but I was definitely wrong. The park is outstanding and the visit with the audioguides is planned amazingly. During the visit I also had a beautiful surprise. I attempted an online lottery and I won the tickets for Aladdin's Broadway show! So that night, after a truly amazing day, we went to the New Amsterdam Theatre for the show, grabbing an hot dog for dinner and enjoying the performance. That was an incredible and unforgettable experience. The third day was sunny too and we went out for a brunch, during which I savoured Benedict eggs, pancakes, and French toasts. After that we went to Central Park and to the Empire State Building, where we were able to admire a stunning view over The City.

My trip to New York - Part 1

I got back from my 9 day trip to New York a few days ago and I must say that this has been the most amazing trip of my entire life.

I wanted to visit "The Big Apple" since I was a child and finally my dream came true.
My boyfriend and I stayed with a friend living there. (you can also say "were hosted by a friend...", but it sounds a little more formal/uncommon) His house is very close to Central Park so we were able to take a lot of walks through the park, both in cloudy and sunny days.

The first day was really rainy and we opted out for visiting the first museum on our list, the Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art. The museum was awesome and we spent all the day there (either "spent all day there" or "spent the day there" work, but "spent all the day" doesn't work here). After that we went out for dinner to a Japanese restaurant where we tried some delicious ramen. (what you wrote wasn't wrong, this just sounds more natural. In Italian assaggiare (to taste) is used more often and in English, to try (provare) is more common with food. To taste is more common for sampling a food)

The second day was even better than the first and maybe my favourite of the entire vacation. (<-- Nice sentence!) It was a beautiful sunny day and we went to visit the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. I must admit, I didn't have high expectations about that visit because I thought that this attraction was too touristy, but I was definitely wrong. (Anch'io :) ) The park is outstanding and the visit with the audio guides is planned amazingly.

During the trip I also had a beautiful surprise. I attempted an online lottery and I won the tickets for Aladdin's Broadway show! So that night, after a truly amazing day, we went to the New Amsterdam Theatre for the show, grabbing an hot dog for dinner and enjoying the performance. That was an incredible and unforgettable experience.

The third day was sunny too and we went out for a brunch, during which I savoured Benedict eggs, pancakes, and French toasts. After that we went to Central Park and then to the Empire State Building, where we were able to admire a stunning view over The City.

Wow this sounds like an amazing trip! Great journaling, Vero. I learned a few things about grammar here by correcting your post. I didn't know the "B" in Benedict eggs or "F" in French toast should be capitalized haha. I had to look it up.

Bravissima! Talk to you soon!

Well written! I enjoyed that .

Our American friends do indeed "grab" a lot of things, such as hotdogs : )
