<From this weekend, NY is officially "summer" 🏄‍♂️🏖>

Last weekend in May!

From this "Memorial Weekend", "Summer in NY" officially starts every year.


Because it will open to the sea in various places

This week I saw a lot of lifeguards and life savers gathering at the beach for face-to-face and warm-ups.

If something happens in the sea, they will fly immediately and help you, so you can rest assured.


The beginning of the summer of 2022!

The first to be released from the corona
Enjoy the summer for the first time in 3 years! So

The airport and train station are full of people who enjoy their vacation.

The city of NY is also ready to accept, and there are plenty of events.


I also this weekend
We would like to introduce many Japanese people living in the United States and those coming from Japan to the Harlem Walking Tour and Gospel Tour!


In NY, I am happy that my new daily life is completely "everyday".

DJ, live performance, dance,

It opened with great fanfare as not just an exhibition but a place for the community.

The hall features a mural of Brooklyn-born legendary "King of New York" Notorious B.I.G.

XXL, a hip-hop magazine that was selling explosively at the time, imitated the jazz song "Great Day in Harlem" (1958)
In 1998
"Greatest Day in Hip-Hop" was filmed gathering over 100 famous rappers in Harlem.

<New York subway to go $3 starting January 4, 2026>

The 24-hour nonstop service of New Yorkers,
Subway (subway).

From January 4th (Sunday) of the new year
It came to $3.

This is the third price increase in the last 10 years.

In 2015, it was raised from $2.50 to $2.75.
Eight years from now, in 2023, it will reach $2.90.
And now it's down to $3 in just three years.

But it's a flat rate, so no matter how far you go or how long you ride, it's only $3!

Together,
32 years since its introduction in 1993
The yellow MetroCard, which served as a symbol of New York, was discontinued at the end of last year.


The contactless Tap & Go style has already been in place since 2019
It has been unified into the "OMNY system," which looks like an iPad.


(*MetroCards that are still valid can still be used until an announcement is made that they will no longer be valid, but since the vending machines no longer exist, you cannot load money onto them.)


The yellow MetroCard was replaced by

The simple black and white "OMNY Card" (right in the photo below)


It can be purchased from vending machines,

You don't have to buy that card

It's convenient because you can use it by simply holding up your credit card or smartphone, which has a WiFi-like mark and allows contactless payments.

No pre-registration or anything is required.
Just come to New York and hold it up.


So, in NY
Please be sure to bring your credit card with you, or your smartphone, which has a Wi-Fi-like mark on it.
