She is doing her internship there in a company called Omnicom. So we took her up from Newark airport and introduced her to everybody. The next day the weather was really bad, it rained for the entire day. So the first thing we did was buying an umbrella. We showed her all the typical NYC tourist attraction and fair to say I don’t even need a map to find them in the city. I know my way around the city (especially midtown), but we still haven’t seen everything. The street system is really easy, you have avenues that run through the length of the city and you have streets that run in the width of the city.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eline is a really cool girl and it immediately clicked between the NY gang and her:). Luckily the second day the weather was a lot better and we took the opportunity to visit the statue liberty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are some pictures&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                                                             MOMA&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5207475891098664386" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SESru4lYvcI/AAAAAAAAEWk/nSALpxI91Ls/s320/DSC01861.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;                                                 The gang&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5207476066174542114" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SESr5EyuoSI/AAAAAAAAEWs/62ZBJx-Z2v4/s320/DSC01912.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;                                                                         In a cab&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5207476248049163778" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SESsDqVBHgI/AAAAAAAAEW0/_GipxxELNoI/s320/DSC01951.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5207477275981230194" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SESs_frHsHI/AAAAAAAAEXE/QStG8LPWY8Y/s320/DSC06672.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;                                                                          Little Italy&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5207477570689380850" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SEStQpjBMfI/AAAAAAAAEXM/oG8OtunfN_4/s320/DSC06692.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5139926632018509744-1738377058026134247?l=laurensinnewyork.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://laurensinnewyork.blogspot.com/feeds/1738377058026134247/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5139926632018509744&amp;postID=1738377058026134247' title='0 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5139926632018509744/posts/default/1738377058026134247'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5139926632018509744/posts/default/1738377058026134247'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://laurensinnewyork.blogspot.com/2008/06/visit-from-florida.html' title='Visit from Florida'/><author><name>Laurens</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16996168066191526985</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SESru4lYvcI/AAAAAAAAEWk/nSALpxI91Ls/s72-c/DSC01861.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139926632018509744.post-7776601291867186663</id><published>2008-06-02T18:34:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-06-02T19:06:42.063-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Niagara falls</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;As you probably already noticed blogging is not really my thing, but I’ll try to catch up where I last left.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So after my guest from Belgian went home went to the Niagara Falls in the weekend. It was a 8 hour drive on a very peaceful road (unlike Boston).&lt;br /&gt;The weather was great and we could take some beautiful pictures of the crazy waterfalls. We also went on 3 different visit tours: the first one we walked in to the American waterfalls, yes of course we were all dressed up, see picture :)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The second tour was going in the Canadian falls with a boat, that was by far the best one :) and on the 3th we went up a big tower to see the falls from above. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5207469780328128466" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SESmLMMKH9I/AAAAAAAAEWE/yfQaTNHPRH4/s320/DSC01591.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5207470107175185586" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SESmeNykbLI/AAAAAAAAEWM/-A5gxL6_zBI/s320/DSC01654.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5207470385732803666" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SESmubf4XFI/AAAAAAAAEWU/MBkBDAeFZ60/s320/DSC01720.JPG" border="0" /&gt; &lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5207470656783041986" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SESm-NPSxcI/AAAAAAAAEWc/V_Kpjbhz6AU/s320/DSC01694.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then we drove further into Canada to Toronto, in the city there is not that much to see but the coolest thing we did was eating dinner in the world’s largest tower, the CN building.

We stayed for 5 days in NYC and we had a great time. We visited some typical tourist attractions and did a bit of shopping, Abercrombie !!! The store is just madness as is the city. As you can see I’m not the only fan of Abercrombie :).

But I know I’m not perfect so I make spelling mistakes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what did we do last weekend: we went up north to Boston! Normally it was a 5 hour drive but it took us 7 hours to reach our hotel. We are already used to driving on the highways but driving in Boston is just mad. I was at the wheel when we reached the city, we drove from tunnel to tunnel without going out the tunnel, cars coming in from everywhere and double bridges. I can assure you, it’s a bit tricky. But we made it and finally reached our hotel which was a lot different from our Marriot hotel in Washington, DC. And to make things even more exciting Leen lost here master card!! We tried contacting the last place where she used here card (yes it was a fast food chain) but without success. Luckily by coincidence she found here card back; it was hidden in a small side pocket of her wallet. The feeling of relief for here as for Elke and me was really big.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194810888288087298" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SBes-se-LQI/AAAAAAAADNU/DG36AHL2zwI/s320/DSC01225.JPG" border="0" /&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194811038611942674" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SBetHce-LRI/AAAAAAAADNc/iWekidf6aSk/s320/DSC01226.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194811219000569122" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SBetR8e-LSI/AAAAAAAADNk/znJKirZ_t2Y/s320/DSC01220.JPG" border="0" /&gt;So after risking our lifes in Boston traffic and still recovering from the master card experience we reached downtown Boston. We followed the freedom trail, it’s is a 2.5 mile red walking trail that leads you to 16 nationally significant historic sites, everyone an authentic American treasure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194811687152004418" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SBettMe-LUI/AAAAAAAADN0/fW3Pkz3bY2g/s320/DSC06450.JPG" border="0" /&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194811962029911378" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SBet9Me-LVI/AAAAAAAADN8/-eF32s-IE9A/s320/DSC01332.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194812331397098850" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SBeuSse-LWI/AAAAAAAADOE/wftoeJ2ItLU/s320/DSC01307.JPG" border="0" /&gt; The next day we went to a lovely part of Boston called Beacon Hill. There we visited “Beacon Hill Chocolates” they sell the Mary chocolates which we are also trying to sell. In the afternoon we went to Harvard were we got a tour from a student. Here you see me touching the foot of the founder of Harvard University, it is supposed to bring good luck.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194812627749842290" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SBeuj8e-LXI/AAAAAAAADOM/sMY6AKjrgpo/s320/DSC06481.JPG" border="0" /&gt;In the evening we went eating in Cheers café and again I noticed that the eating habits of some Americans are so wrong. You never see them using their knife which results in using their fingers. And when they leave the table it looks like a pig has eaten there. Funny to see tough :).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Sunday we headed back for a long drive home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tomorrow Natasja, Arnaud and my parents are coming over. I’ll pick them up at the ferry. I can’t wait to see them!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Greetz&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5139926632018509744-5806222247671938249?l=laurensinnewyork.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://laurensinnewyork.blogspot.com/feeds/5806222247671938249/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5139926632018509744&amp;postID=5806222247671938249' title='0 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5139926632018509744/posts/default/5806222247671938249'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5139926632018509744/posts/default/5806222247671938249'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://laurensinnewyork.blogspot.com/2008/04/boston.html' title='Boston'/><author><name>Laurens</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16996168066191526985</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SBes-se-LQI/AAAAAAAADNU/DG36AHL2zwI/s72-c/DSC01225.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139926632018509744.post-7030934404621269957</id><published>2008-04-24T06:47:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-29T14:29:50.893-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Philadelphia</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Hey hey hey everybody&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll do this post in English; the reason for this is that last weekend we had the change to stay with a lovely couple called John and Christine. They’re friends of Leen’s parents. So its beer related:).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They live an hour away from Philadelphia. We arrived there Friday evening at their beautiful home and after getting a grand tour of the house we ate pizza (the best I’ve eaten in America since I’m here), drunk beer and shared all our stories.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next morning we went to Philadelphia in John’s brand new car. A big and very powerful SUV (a V8). I think that if you use this car in Belgium you’ll spend a fortune on gaz. The car was really nice and it was cool to finally sit in a big car because normally if we drive our little Kia we always get passed by by those giant cars. But now we had POWER :).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;John and Christine were so nice that they guided us around the entire city. We visited the liberty bell, the national constitution center, the independent hall,… and of course the ROCY stairs:). For lunch we went to a Belgium bar who served all kinds of Belgian beers. It’s called Monk’s.&lt;br /&gt;By then another couple joined us, they were friends of John and Christine. Jason &amp;amp; Michelle, also really nice people, although Jason wasn’t the best in estimating how long we’ll have to walk (“JUST ONE MORE BLOCK”):), but he had an iphone so that made up for it :).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5192829744428490546" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SBCjI8e-HzI/AAAAAAAACv8/P9ahJQZi6cM/s320/DSC06379.JPG" border="0" /&gt; starting from the left (Michelle, Jason, John, Christine)&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5192830543292407618" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SBCj3ce-H0I/AAAAAAAACwE/QCJGW931K8c/s320/DSC06401.JPG" border="0" /&gt; &lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5192831909092007778" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SBClG8e-H2I/AAAAAAAACwQ/qdETEmojJBo/s320/DSC06414.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the evening we went to a place where people hang out. It’s like the street in Ghent (“Overpoort”) but only bigger (No surprise, this is America). There we had the change to eat the typical cheese steak. It was really good and I even finished the other half of Leen (as she is such a big eater:) ). For dessert we tried water ice, it’s like a squishy from the Simpsons:). Luckily I didn’t get brain freeze.

Twas in totaal 5 uur rijden waarvan het langste stuk op de New Jersey Turnpike. Das een autostrade maar nog BIGGER :) (Gelijk alles hier). Toen we dan aankwamen in de stad, was het super warm, echt mooi weer. Nadat we de valiezen in het hotel afgezet hebben zijn we bijna direct naar het witte huis gaan kijken. Wel tof om zo eens in real life te zien. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5190682630554339618" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SAkCWd_7SSI/AAAAAAAACV0/R4z_bUoHWus/s320/DSC06237.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5190682991331592498" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SAkCrd_7STI/AAAAAAAACV8/o9alNWaXs7I/s320/DSC06327.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Zaterdag was het ook weer lekker warm en hebben we de rest van de stad gezien, tis totaal anders dan NYC. Super proper en mooie parkjes. Wel heel veel politie en bewaking vooral dan aan de government buildings. Heel toevallig was er zaterdag de Cherry Blosem Parade. De Japanners hebben die bomen cadeau gedaan aan de amerikanen en in deze periode van het jaar staan ze in bloem en die amerikanen vieren da dan. Die stoet was echt grappig om te zien, zo veel fanfares en dan van die cheerleaders ervoor met hun pomponekes :). En dan nog zo bekende mensen van american Idol op een wagen en ook miss America maar die trekt op nie veel :)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5190679993444419842" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SAj_89_7SQI/AAAAAAAACVk/3ATnblzrI08/s200/DSC06316.JPG" border="0" /&gt; &lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5190681002761734418" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SAkA3t_7SRI/AAAAAAAACVs/1CN9G2DZDTE/s320/DSC06310.JPG" border="0" /&gt; &lt;div&gt;Tegen de avond begon het zwaar te onweren en dan was het een stuk frisser. De laatste dag zijn we nog naar het pentagon gaan kijken en ook de cemetry van Arlington, das een begraafplaats voor al de veteranen. Daar liggen meer dan 290.000 mensen. Overal waar je kijkt zie je er liggen.&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5190679177400633586" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SAj_Nd_7SPI/AAAAAAAACVc/5PsK93sNgKA/s320/DSC06357.JPG" border="0" /&gt; Op de terugweg zijn we even gestopt in Baltimore, ma daar was nie zo veel te zien, de inner harbour was wel mooi, en dan lekker gaan eten in het Hard Rock Café.&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5190678395716585682" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/SAj-f9_7SNI/AAAAAAAACVM/XemFbdWEFsI/s320/DSC06363.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Kheb trouwens nog nooit zoveel fastfood ketens gezien, zelf tot in het centraal station in washington had je er zeker 20 naast elkaar.

We hebben het goed gevierd met champagne, kaartjes,... Martine was zo lief dat ze het huis helemaal versierde met happy b-day. Twas echt tof. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:85%;"&gt;Als cadeau zijn we gaan shoppen :) , en kmoe zeggen kben al veel en lang gaan winkelen maar nu wast toch een van de zotste keren. Het was niet in de stad maar in een outlet center "woodbury" in de staat new york, tis op een uurtje rijden van ons huis. De prijzen zijn er zowiezo goedkoper omdat het een outlet is en dan nog eens met de lage dollar er bij= ZALIG. Alles was zo goedkoop jong. Maar onderweg naar daar zijn we eerst gestopt in een Abercrombie store, gewoon de max he. Kvoelde mij gelijk een klein kind :)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:85%;"&gt;We hebben uiteindelijk heel de zaterdag geshopt van 10AM tot 9PM.

Vroeg opstaan want de trein vertrok tegen 7u in een klein station "Gladstone Peapack". Je zit zo'n uur op de trein en moet 1 keer overstappen. Twas wel tof want je ziet het platteland van NJ. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;En dan kwamen we eindelijk aan in NYC (Penn Station vlak bij macy's). Direct zie je de hoge buildings en super veel verkeer en gele taxi's. We zijn echt de tourist gaan uithangen want voor Leen en Elke was het de eerste keer in NYC. Wat hebben we allemaal bezocht: Empire State Building, Flatiron Building, Central Station, Crysler Building, St. Patricks Cathedreal, Abercrombie store :) (nog niets gekocht) Central park, Lincoln center, Time Square (by day and by night), Rockofeller (by night, dan krijg je echt een prachtig zicht van New York City).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5183948889416213858" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 285px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 199px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="172" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/R_EWDJdvJWI/AAAAAAAAAYE/_T9BCIIQSx4/s400/DSC06153.JPG" width="264" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;We zijn ook echt op ze'n amerikaans gaan eten, eerst wendy's dan Dunkun Donuts en dan Subway.

De criteria zijn: vertrek tussen 21 en 24 maart en terug tegen 19 juni, landen op de luchthaven Newark (EWR) gelegen in New Jersey. Er zijn nog 2 andere internationale luchthavens in New York: John F. Kennedy Int. en La Guardia Airport (LGA). Elke Luchthaven heeft zijn eigen unieke indentificatie code IATA. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Op de kaart zijn de 3 luchthavens weegegeven, 1=JFK, 2=LGA, 3=EWR. &lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5136398073508114386" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="146" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_cW_UwZOR39M/R0gm1YRzr9I/AAAAAAAAAAk/dWJk6MBuXuA/s200/Airports+in+NY.jpg" width="144" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Na heel wat opzoek werk op de websites van de verschillende luchtvaartmaatschappijen, vonden we een aantal mogelijkheden:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;· Continental airlines (BRU-EWR)&lt;br /&gt;· Jet Airways (BRU-EWR)&lt;br /&gt;· United (BRU-MUC, MUC-EWR)&lt;br /&gt;· Delta (BRU-ATL, ATL-EWR)&lt;br /&gt;· Virgin Atlantic (BRU-LHR, LHR-EWR)&lt;br /&gt;· …&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Niettegenstaande een rechtstreekse vlucht zeer handig is opteerden we toch voor de United Airlines vlucht via München airport (MUC). Dit omwille van de prijs, slechts 442 Euro (inclusief extra k osten) heen en terug. De tickets zijn aangekocht bij Connections in hun kantoor in de Hoogpoort te Gent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Niettegenstaande de vlucht geboekt wordt bij United Airlines zal de vlucht volledig uitgevoerd worden door Lufthansa. Dit komt door de samenwerking tussen deze 2 maatschappijen. Dit noemt code sharing. Dit wordt steeds meer gedaan omwille van de voordelen voor zowel de maatschappij als de passagier. Zo kan de maatschappij vluchten verkopen, die ze zelf niet uitvoert.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lufthansa gebruikt op de route BRU-MUC een Avro RJ85. Dit is een klein single aisle vliegtuig met 4 jet motoren.
