Friday May 25 (add pictures)

Another great and full day!

We got up, I worked out and we got breakfast.

When we were all ready, we rode the train all the way to the end of the line and hopped on the ferry to the Statue of Liberty.

It was a beautiful day today.

The ferry ride was nice and it was so neat walking around and reading things about the Statue of Liberty.

After walking around there for a bit, we sat and ate lunch.

We made sandwiches again out of the PB and J supplies from breakfast :)

Then we hopped back on the ferry that took us to Ellis Island.

That was a neat place to see and so interesting to see pictures and read stories of the lives that came through there.

It was a beautiful building.

All these old building are just so amazing!

Then it was back to the ferry, back on the subway, and back to midtown where we grabbed some yummy pizza for dinner.

We brought it back to the hotel to eat and relax for just a bit.

We wanted to go and see the sunset from the Empire State building tonight.

So we headed that was again about 6:30.

Another very cool building, very art deco chic :)

We went to the 86 floor and then onto the 102.

So very cool to be up there, and look WAAAAY over at the Statue of Liberty that we were just at a few hours earlier.

Pretty amazing!

After checking those floors out, we went to the gift shop to check stuff out.

Then when it got close to 8, we went and grabbed a good spot to watch the sun set.

We got there just in time before the big crowd followed us.

We got fun pictures and it was a perfect way to end the trip.

Actually, the perfect way to end it was with the waffles we went and got after we left there :)

Unbelievably good!

We ate it while we looked up at the Empire State Building, all lit up in red, white and blue for Memorial day.

It was a beautiful night!

Back at home, Cassi got an award today at school for her GPA.

Good job Cass!

And this evening, Dad took Cassi and Porter to see Solo, while Elsie played with Sierra and Madi went with friends.

I think they are excited to see me........

I am so overly excited to see and be with them!!!!!!!!

Tomorrow!

It is gonna be an early morning though....so I need to get some sleep!
