    H2Oi was the destination, but New York was the first stop. The cheapest flight we could find to get to H2oi in Ocean City, Maryland involved a stop in New York and a 4 hour drive down to Maryland.  We start this trip with our flight from LAX to JFK…

    DSC01316After checking in, the first thing we did was head to The Halal Guys for their famous rice dishes.
    DSC01315 It’s the sauce man, the sauce makes this dish. DSC01314 Coincidentally, Jerald was in New York already with his family and had a day to meet us up. DSC01309 Happy to say this is now available in OC, but the line for it is too ridiculous to wait in.DSC01317This police station looks like a restaurant.

     A travel tip from us is to get the New York pass if you want to do the major tourist attractions.

    Just 15 minutes away was the 9/11 memorial, so we decided to pay our respects and check out the memorial.

    The deep and lost feeling from this memorial was so powerful.
