NYC in One Day: How We Almost Missed Our Flight ๐
A whirlwind classic NYC tour โ with all the chaos included! ๐ Baggage Surprise: Left luggage at $35/day per item โ our tripโs most expensive โsouvenir.โ ๐ธ ๐ Transport Confusion: Took Airtrain โ LIRR โ subway. Signs were confusing โ we missed paying for LIRR and had to buy $14 tickets onboard (price varied from what weโd read!). Apple Pay failed, but one credit card worked for two people. ๐๏ธ Classic Landmarks Sprint: Times Square (daytime = less dazzling) Empire State Building โ worth the view! NYC looked like tiny building blocks from above. ๐๏ธ Trinity Church โ main hall closed for holiday decor Wall Street โ almost missed the Fearless Girl statue! Took a vintage-style newspaper photo nearby. ๐ฐ Statue of Liberty via Staten Island Ferry โ free, but windy, cold, and time-consuming. Nearly missed our flight because of the wait! โด๏ธ Brooklyn Bridge โ arrived after sunset. The lit-up bridge was absolutely cinematic! ๐ โ๏ธ The 10-Minute Airport Dash: JFK on a Saturday night = endless security lines. After 2 hours barely moving, some frantic passengers got staff to open a new line. We sprinted and made it just in time โ 10 mins later wouldโve meant sleeping at the airport! ๐โโ๏ธ๐จ An unforgettable, chaotic, and very New York kind of day. #NYC #NYCDayTrip #TravelChaos #NYCLandmarks #AlmostMissedFlight #Adventure
