Dan and I, my family and whole extended family just got back from New York for my cousin Stephanie's wedding. It was my NY cousins' first time to meet Dan, and everyone asked if he was half Japanese, but I don't blame them since Dan starts every topic with "when I was in Japan...blah blah." Also, he's dating me, though not exactly Japanese, asian attracts asian, right? And hey, it was his idea to go see the cherry blossoms bloom at the Brooklyn Botanical Garden and Murakami's exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum of Art. The last one I wish we had a chance to see, but it was not in our cards. The only two days we had for our own exploration were Monday and Tuesday, which are the days when everything fun is closed and to be opened when our flight departs on Wednesday, 4:18 pm. At least we ate like absolute kings while we were there and my cousins loved Dan.
On Friday, we visited a rock and meteorite store near the Empire State Building with my brother and sister-in-law. It was there that I heard the nerdiest thing from Dan: "I hope they have my favorite rock, tourmaline." Jessi and I laughed in his face, then ended up with egg on ours when he showed us a small specimen that cost $26,000. But my brother says that to be fair, the first sample he showed us sucked ass (and cost $2.50).
Vox is being stupid so I can't upload any pictures, but you can visit our photo gallery. One album is of my cousin's wedding and the other is of the rest of our vacation.
