Colours and snow in New York

Part I: Colours
Visited the much anticipated city. Managed to meet up with Ellen, close pal from our ODAC days. While I was expecting New York to be metropolitan and all, I didn;t expect it to be so Hong Kong/Tokyo style. The was so filled with billboards, LED screens, lights and colours that it blinds you.

Beautiful lights outside some unknown pubs


M&Ms Machine || Coffee Jugs (my fav!)


MacDonald's - colourful New York Style

Part II: Snow
Unknown to us, New York was going to have one of the heaviest snow storms in 10 years that night. Didn't know it was such a huge thing until it was on international news. Some parks have between 15-25 inches of snow. The sudden change in the city is phenomenal. Overnight, the city became a completely different place. Snow-covered roads prevented any possible transportational activities. The snow was so heavy it was literally pelting. But the experience of being caught in a historical snow storm is truly unique.

This is for you guys, ODAC 18th Batch.
We had it on sand and earth. Having it on snow completes the collection
