And of course ... it's the Statue of Liberty!!!
We just did a drive-by on the Statten Island ferry. The ferry doesn't get all that close but at least it's a free ride!

I'd heard that the Statue was actually pretty titchy and I have to agree that it's nowhere near as impressive as they make it out to be in the movies. But it was still really amazing to see it - that kind of drove home the fact that we were actually in New York City, in the United States of America!!!!

And here I am on the ferry! You can see the Statue of Liberty in the background if you look really hard!

Brooklyn Bridge
(And some arb ship!)
This is was also taken from the ferry.

The Manhatten skyline ... and no Twin Towers!
I took this pic as the ferry was heading back towards Manhatten.

Sandra and I inside the World Financial Centre. Behind us is Ground Zero where the World Trade Centre towers used to be. It's now a huge construction site.
