"Concrete jungle where dreams are made of" {NYC Day 2}

Sunday the boys headed to West Point to see a family friend who goes there and the girls headed to see the Statue of Liberty and to see Wicked! We took the Staten Island Ferry {since it was free and the Statue of Liberty was closed so we decided not to stop at Ellis Island}. It is really cool to see the Statue of Liberty in person since I obviously knew what she looked like but it means so much more when you can see if with your own eyes.

We walked passed wall street




It was off to WICKED! Connie hooked us up with great seats, we were literally in the second row! The show was amazing and our seats just added to the whole experience. I had never been to a major production so I felt super spoiled that I got to see Wicked in New York for my first one! We got to see all the expressions on the actors faces, we were so close we even saw when the actors spit or if sweat came from their faces. It was an awesome production from the costumes, set, and actors....thanks again Connie for one of the best surprises!

We also visited the memorial they have in Jersey City where our hotel was for the victims of 9/11 that died from that city.
