During our third day in the big city my father and I decided to visit the colourful spot Times Square in the morning where despite of the fact that it was midday nearly all lights were switched on and flashing when we walked by. The enormous and almost vivid (!) posters from different brands caught our eyes when we passed the big buildings.
Our plan was to spend most of the day at the popular outlet named Woodbury Common, Premium Outlets. We bought tickets at the bus terminal close to Times Square and the bus ride itself lasted for about one hour. We arrived around 12 PM and decided to have a coffee at Starbucks before checking out the giant map of the 220 outlet stores to mark which stores where worth looking up.
We started together but ended up on two different sides of the big lot since we realized that we wanted to visit different stores ;) The hours literally ran away and suddenly the time was 6 PM and it had gotten all pitch black outdoors. We ended up on a bus back to the city around 8 PM and when we got back to the hotel we fell asleep early. Poor feet, all exhausted from all shopping and walking during the day.
It was fun though! I'd been looking forward to it before coming to NY and I must say that it was worth the effort. I bought a few classic cotton & wool sweaters, a blouse, a brown belt, lots of underwear! After all brands such as Calvin Klein are so expensive in Sweden yet cheap in the USA. I'll make sure to visit Woodbury Common the next time I'll be heading towards the city.
