Previously...

1. Breakfast
2. Random Places
3. Yankee Stadium
4. The Guggenheim Museum
5. The Vessel and The Shed
6. Time Square

Day 3: 

1. Brooklyn Bridge
All I can say is, the magnets are cheaper at the very end! 



2. Ramen
Thank you to Jorge's boss who showed us this bomb Ramen place. (Yeah, I grabbed  some of their cool chop sticks to bring home.)






3. Joker Stairs
Ok. This was by far the sketchiest part of our trip. But cool to see for sure. I wondered why that seen was so long in the movie. It's because the stair are practically endless!





4. 9/11 Memorial
May God bless all of those who were lost and watch over those who were left without their loved ones...
The 9/11 memorial was beautiful and very powerful. We didn't go in the museum but after hearing stories of it, if we go back, it's absolutely something I'd like to do.


 



5. The Oculus
Wow, wow, wow. Santiago Calatrava out did himself with this one. We got out of the subway and there it was. The tips of the structure peaking around the corner and it took everything in me not to run towards it. The outside was stunning and the inside  was even more spectacular. You would believe how big it actually is until your standing near it or in it. I think it was by far my favorite part of New York. 


   



6. Dyker Heights
I was not expecting the crazy amount of people here! The lights were amazing and the houses were beautifully decorated. 10/10 recommend 

    


Day 4: We relaxed most of the morning, did a little shopping, got some delicious tacos and went out with a good friend of ours in the evening. :)







Thank you for stopping by! I'll be updating these New York posts every so often to make sure I got everything. But bye for now. :)

Love always,

Europe 2018 - Part 3 - Portugal!

Hello hello, welcome back! Ready for part 3? Portugal!! Bom Dia, Belém! (Good morning, Belém!) June 18, 2018   May 30, 2018 Day 2 in Europe  Oh boy! Lisbon has so many sites to see and things to do. We jam packed the day on a whim and it was so much fun. The easiest way is to start at the beginning.  1. First we walked to downtown Lisbon. We didn't do much and finding our way was pretty simple. You just have to follow the tram tracks. On our way down we passed churches and museums and snapped a few quick photos. We also ate fresh, local fruit which I highly recommend if you ever find yourself in this beautiful city.  2. Next we found the metro. Then from the metro we switched to the train that took us to Belém. On the train ride we passed a couple well known architectural buildings such as the Energias de Portugal(EDP) Headquarters by Aires Mateus Architects and the Museu Coleção Berardo of Modern and Contemporary Art.

Hello again! Welcome back. I hope you are all well and ready for another blast from the past. :) Europe part 2. First time flying and New York! Howdy! Today Is the day! May 29, 2018 Truthfully, 2 days ago was the day. It was hard to find time to write when trying to fit in 2 flights and a trip to Times Square in one day! So it's the next day and here's the what you should know about my first flight and trip to New York.  1. I found myself above the clouds. We arrive at the airport and I'm still not nervous. In fact, I felt indifferent about it. My friend checked me in, thank goodness. I would have been absolutely lost walking in by myself. It was Spirit Airlines so you just walk up to the kiosk and print your ticket. Then head to the checked baggage line for a large bag or straight to TSA if you only have a carry on and personal item. The check baggage line was incredibly long and nerve racking but luckily I have a carry

Welcome back! Where to begin with this one... Uhhh, well, here are some lessons learned. Lesson Learned! July 9, 2018 | Rebekah Mireles It's impossible to take a 2 week trip to another country and not learn anything. Whether it be facts or history about your destination or lessons you can only learn by doing. By that I mean, when you royally mess up but you're in another country so your only option IS to learn from it. Yep. That was me. It was a tough pill to swallow but what I got from it makes it worth it. It’s wasn’t all  that  bad though.  (From left to right: Me, Jorge and Hayley. We were actually just tired from walking those stairs behind us but our facial expressions seemed fitting for lessons learned. ) The next picture was my flight into Lisbon, Portugal. So beautiful. For starters, I learned that I can’t sleep on planes. Simple as that. I tried melatonin. I tried ZzzQuil. I tried not sleeping be
