It was time for serious sighseeing. We attended a guided tour that had a New Jersey pick-up from our hotel. We had to get up early though.
It was a very pleasant 5 hour ride. We stopped at Central Park, Rockefeller Center, St. Paul´s Cathethral, Greenwich Village and Ground Zero. And saw even more places during the bus drive. Famous buildings, the places where some celebrity live etc. Our tour guide Bill was really great and had some great stories of New York, New Yorkers and history. After the bus drive we got the tickets to the ferry and headed to Liberty Island to visit Lady Liberty herself. We even managed to get tickets into the statue and got to go to see the scenery up from the Statue of Liberty. The top of the statue cannot be visited anymore, but we had a huge luck of getting these tickets, since they are very hard to get.
After a long day in New York and the Liberty Island we stepped into the ferry and headed back to New Jersey. Really exhausted but many experiences richer.
