I'm typing this post from the Tampa airport as we are about to board our first flight - we've just finished the first hour of our 30+ hour journey home to New Zealand.
Our third day in NYC we decided to go see the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. We had so much fun seeing Lady Liberty and playing in the park around her that we didn't make it to Ellis Island, that will be something to look forward to on a future trip.
I haven't actually gone to the statue before, I've only seen her from a boat circling the island and didn't fully appreciate how huge she is! The information we read about her said that she was shipped to America from France in 350 pieces place in 215 crates.
That evening we went to see "The Little Mermaid" on Broadway and it was incredible! The cast was amazing, the set design awe-inspiring and the girls thoroughly enjoyed it. Here they are all dressed up and ready to go:
After the show we walked through Times Square to get to our subway for the ride home:
We also visited the largest Toys R Us store in the world and the girls loved the Barbie section
On the way home in the subway we ran into a sorority sister of mine in Grand Central Station - so fun! Here we are at our stop before walking home:
