Not knowing anyone who died in the WTC, it was still emotional to read the names, but aside from that, there is little to see here except a large hole surrounded by gates where they are pretending to start construction. It’s disappointing to see the vendors selling photographs and other souveniers, making a quick dollar off so many deaths, but I suppose that’s America.

Hmm.. this isn’t any of the above choices for what kind of entry this is.
I went to the statue again this month and because of increased “security” it took an extra hour to get on the ferry to the statue, we stood in line for security ON the island to get into the Statue for 2 hours after we got there. My son was sea sick and had to leave his bottle of water in a locker, along with my infant’s baby food. We didn’t have access to these things while we spent most of the afternoon in a security line in an unairconditioned room . By the time we finally got into the statue and back out, none of us had the patience to even get off of the boat at Ellis.

Well, we almost made it here. I went to the Statue a week ago, but by the time we headed back, it was too late to spend any time at Ellis Island. You’d think that living here in the city, I’d see a few of these places.

If you want wide open spaces and outdoorsy fun, this is the place to go! Dress for the weather, though! One of the most beautiful places on earth!
