Today has been a great day. I really love the trip, I enjoyed
everything I did. I love the Empire state building, even though I have visited
the Jin Mao tower in Shanghai, which is really tall and people do get to the
top of the tower visiting the City of Shanghai. It is really amazing and fabulous.
However, I like the Empire state building more, it’s more international and it’s
located in Manhattan. Obviously the
Empire building is more popular than the Shanghai Jin Mao building and it was
the tallest tower in the world at one point.

After lunch at Grand Central Station, we visited the financial district. We went to Wall Street. That is my
dreaming place. I heard and saw the Wall Street on TV and news before, and I wished I could visit Wall Street one day. And today I did that, I made that
really happen. I walked down Wall Street and we learned a lot about the stock exchange. Also I had
some pictures with the Bull in the Wall Street. We saw the amazing Bull on Wall Street, even though the artist just put it there "temporarily." But everybody loved it, and it represented Wall Street so the city bought it. It’s so sweet, isn’t it?

Then we
walked across the Brooklyn Bridge, which is around a mile long. We were above
all cars walking in the bridge. We watched the car came and left. We can easily
tell the different people in cars and see they drive across the bridge. It’s so
impressive, it looks like a movie, we usually see this amazing and famous
bridge in so many different movies. However it’s the really life, I know it’s
really unbelievable. We just did it. It’s really good, everyone should get here
and visit here, I promise you it’s really really good, you have to come here so
that you can feel the great life.

Last
but not the least, we found out we are really small in the universe. We are so
small for the big city. If you have been
to New York City, you will know what I am saying. New York city is a international and modern city.
You have to get here and feel this city. I trust it’s the center of the whole
universe. I like NYC, it’s so amazing; I
love NYC, it makes people to think about their life; I admire NYC, because
there is no other city can be that amazing and gorgeous like NYC.
