Staten Island Ferry


After breakfast we took the subway to Battery Park, where we had to wait for the Staten Island ferry. As you can tell from our faces, it was very boring.


We rode the ferry because it is free and sails by the Statue of Liberty. When we went past, we got our picture taken with it. Many people think the Statue of Liberty is one of the tallest things in New York, but the truth is it's not that tall, just famous. You can tell from the picture that both Strange Panda and I are taller than it, so that is how small it actually is!


I got my picture taken with the skyline of New York as we sailed away. This shows that many other buildings in New York are also not that tall.


Sarah finally discovered Strange Panda on the trip, so she was happy and presented him as if on a platter. I am not sure why she didn't notice him the first five days though.
