PHILADELPHIA! THE CITY OF BROTHERLY LOVE AND NEW YORK CITY, THE BIG APPLE! Now I’ve been to NYC about 7 times already, ashamed to say is been basically Manhattan every time but one day I’ll get outside of it. Now Philly on the other hand, I had not. This was my first time and I will say it’s not bad. We only spent a few hours there, but it was cool. We went to Gino’s for Philly cheesesteak and mannnnn let me tell you, don’t go there. It’s not good. It’s a generic ass cheesesteak that had little to no flavor whatsoever. Now I’ve heard so many people from Philly tell me not to go there, and welp I should have listened. I went because its famous and I had to cross it off the list, never going to make that mistake of going back again I promise you that lol. I’ve had fast food and dollar store cheesesteaks better than that place. Hell, Hot Pockets make a better cheesesteak. Now I’m from Chicago pizza and Italian beef is somewhat of our specialty, but we can be great at making anything and our cheesesteaks are better than Ginos. Anyway, after the $11 assault on my tastebuds we continued our journey towards my friends moms house recharge our phones and just catch up. After a bit there we headed to where anyone visiting Philly should go….. the Rocky statue and museum steps.
Yes we took pictures with Rocky, yes we saw the steps, yes we ran the steps, and yes we did play Eye of the Tiger the entire way up. What else would we do there. After acting out some of our favorite scenes we headed to the train to head to NY. The train ride was roughly 2 hrs. Took the train to Penn Station and maneuvered our way through the city before stopping somewhere to grab some food and discuss our plans. We found somewhere to hold our bags for the night as we explored.
Our first stop on our way back from the bag drop was a few souvenir shops, then Time Square. We have 2 extremely photogenic women with us, so basically most of the night was a photoshoot lol. Side note, my photography skills are slowly coming along. After a long day of traveling and photos, talking to random people and seeing a free halsey concert on the big screen in Time Square, we got our bags and hopped in an uber to our Airbnb.
After leaving our Airbnb the next day we headed out back towards Manhattan to do some shopping and take more pictures. We dropped off our bags at another luggage drop-off spot and made our way to times square. We went to the Disney store, the M&M store, BTS store, a few boutiques along the way and then filled in the time in between taking photos and videos. After spending the majority if the morning and early afternoon doing all of that, we made our way to Bryant Park to go ice skating. Well, they went ice skating, no one has a size 18 ice skate lol. After about an hour of skating we grabbed some hot coco and made our way the Lego store and met up with a friend of a friend.
After meeting up with him, we were able to see the amazing light show that the Sax puts on every year in front of Rockefeller plaza. It’s always a pleasure to see that show live and in person. Videos and pictures of it do it no justice. I hope one day you get a chance to go and experience it! After the show was over, unfortunately it was time for us to head back to get our luggage and head to Penn Station to catch the train back to Philly to catch our flight.
I will always enjoy the random spur of the moment trips to NYC and the planned ones, it’s always an amazing city to visit. If you haven’t been, GO!
