New York

Last week I was blessed with the opportunity to go to New York with my best friend, Aleata and her family. I had so much fun! I'll explain what I got to see along with the pictures below.

From the left is Miss Jane, Doug, Rose, Aleata and me and Mr. Ron is taking the picture





On the subway




This was taken on ferry to see the Statue of Liberty. It was extremely windy that day! The boat was rocking like crazy! But we're just acting in the picture.

Getting closer...
We're here!

The inside of the Statue of Liberty


The winding staircase to the very top
But it was too windy to go up there


Time Square

We went to Toys 'R' Us and they had a huge ferris wheel inside
The employees looked at us like we were crazy



I got to try a New York pretzel, hot dog and pizza
Inside St. Paul's Cathedral







The Library of Columbia University
We also got to see Mary Poppins! It was so good!
In Central Park






Inside the Lincoln Center
