On the first day we went to battery park and took a tour of Liberty island (which we didn’t stay at and visit) and Ellis island (which we did stay at and visit). At Ellis island I found about 7 different Burns families on the list! After that (I think, it might have been the second day I’m not quite sure) we took a tour of N.Y.C.
On the second day we went to central park after we went to the U.N. (United Nations) where they had a meeting in session. After central park, we took a trip over to Shea Stadium to see the Mets play.
On the third day, we went to Times Square in the morning to do some shopping, and would have gone into the empire state building in the afternoon, but the wait was too long so we took a short class trip to American Eagle (which I’m not all that into). at 7:00 we took a twilight cruise tour of the Hudson River.
Here are some pics of my trip:
This is a mosaic inside the U.N.
This is a gift from China to the U.N.
This is a gift from Japan to the U.N.
These are two cool statues just outside the U.N.
