Gramps here....what a day!!! 911 memorial was unbelievable.building bone ground holds 2-300 people.then you go underground bout 80 to 100 feet. Lots of emergency rigs and personal effects. Very somber, lots of 911 tv broadcasts. MattLauer even had hair and Katie Curic looked good. This Statue of Liberty is huge. Walked half way to top.....Ellis Island is very big and reminds you of the godfather movie"......

Taylor here today was just unbelievable the 9/11 was so cool I learned so much and I thought I knew everthing but apparently not, Also the Statue of Liberty was huge I have always wanted to go to it and I finally went it was now what I exceped. Than we went to Ellis Island and saw where imager rants would come,but most of the artifacts were being fixed because of hurricane sandy. Than we went grocery shopping. We are having chicken, broccol, mashed potatos, and kale chips. Yum! Than hot chocolate and the movie Godfather after.
