New York Day 2

We were pretty tired from being out late the night before, but we had more city to see. We met up with Ashley on her lunch break and went to a deli that had delicious looking lemon roasted chicken. I foolishly didn't order it and was not very happy with my sandwich. We asked Ashley what else we needed to see and she pointed us toward the south side of town.

We looked out over the river at the Statue of Liberty. That was as close as we'd get because we didn't want to pay to take a ferry. From there we walked to the World Trade Center construction site. It didn't look like much at this point, I'm sure it was much more impressive pre 9/11. Still it was good to see. They're working on a new tower and a memorial. As we walked through a mall, we saw statues made of canned food. One was a diorama of Mario that was pretty cool.

We walked down Wall St. That area was very impressive because the Buildings were taller and the streets were narrower. Finally we walked out onto the Brooklyn Bridge and after that we were pooped. We rode the train back to New Haven said our goodbyes to Laura and headed towards upstate New York.
