Awww I’m missing NYC so much!!! I totally agree the Statue of Liberty is so much smaller in real life and it’s so meaningful to go to Ellis Island I didn’t get the chance last time but definitely want to next time 😀

Can you believe I have never been to the Statue of Liberty?? I have however visited Ellis Island, and it is definitely worth the trip (more than the SoL I would imagine), because you learn so much about the immigration to the US and see the places these people sometimes stayed for weeks, their personal belongings and a lot of photos and documents… really interesting.

I remember the long line… I am not sure which is better – waiting in cold or hot as we visited several days after Christmas. I thought I was going to die from cold on a ferry and waiting outside in a long line… Haha. You wrote a very good review!

I’ve spent one day in NY and made it to the top of the Empire State building but didn’t have time to see the lady. Thanks for sharing your experience and great pictures!

JT and I (and a friend from Germany) climbed the stairs to the crown when it was allowed about 30 years ago. So many tiny stairs we all got Charlie-Horse in our thighs! It teamed with rain that day and we got soaked walking through the financial district (which was deserted on a weekend in those days). Makes me feel old. Very old.

Fun post, and your description of the security check made me laugh…and sympathize.
