Battery Park New York NY
Ferry to the Statue of LibertyHere's a picture of the ferry that takes you to the Statue of Liberty.
We hopped off of our doubledecker siteseeing tour at Battery Park and followed the wide sidewalk all the way to the tip of Manhattan.
There is also a fort there, and lots of vendors selling watches on the sidewalk.
There were lots of people in lines to take the ferry. Thay had just announced that the tickets were sold out. It was around five o'clock. So we walked along the boardwalk for awhile and saw that they are rebuilding Battery Park and making little paths and planting exotic plants.

The Statue of Liberty was surrounded by fog, so our picture didn't turn out so good.
