The statue of
Liberity, final seen
oneof the world's most famous Icon. We didn't take a ferry to
liberity island instead as good budget travellers we took the free ferry ride to Staten Island and we caught a glimpse of the icon. Pt to note unless you want to
que for 2 hours to get on the ferry to
liberity island, the
staten island ferry is definitely a better choice and it departs every half hour from South Pier.
Group photo
The back view of the ferry with the city landscape
The statue and the city.
With the
staten ferry service personnel, the younger guy was actually in the navy and visited Singapore some years back so we may be a small dot but we aren't that
ulu haha.
Free shuttle but don't take the shuttle if you do not really want to visit the island the Sep 11 memorial is within walking distance
This memorial is structure so that if you see through them you can actually see where the twin towers were supposed to be.
At the side is actually the son's and daughters of
staten island who were lost in the tragedy and somehow you can feel their lost especially when they put the photo of the person who had passed on.
Part of the stadium
Another photo of the statue of
liberity at battery park.
Battry park is a memorial park so there are many places where it is indeed
unqiue and special and of course photo taking opportunities.
To remember the migrants who labour for the success of New York if i remember correctly.
Oh and there are many squirrels around and some people actually sell nuts to the tourist so if you do want to to get close to the squirrels bring your own nuts.
This
sculture was actually about peace and they got it from the Sep 11 site, its amazing it is still relatively intact after the collapse of the towers.
The wall street bull, it is said that touching the balls will bring good luck and well... lets wait and see
The act tough group...
Everything is nearby so
yah these are free sites to visit and take great photos.
Well, this is especially attractive to ladies but not to guys
The New York Stock Exchange... Finally, reach the world's financial capital. The pilgrim of every finance student.
The main entrance of the stock exchange.
Trinity Church
Oh, talking about food.This is a Japanese
resturant just near the trinity church, its relatively cheap and good. The amazing thing its served by Indians. Food in new york is expensive but you can try get either road side food or maybe visit places like subway which had a promotion of a foot long subway for $5.
Acting cool again...
And this is the New York Federal Reserve, something which i am studying in my economics class
Grand Central station where a lot of movies were shot.
United Nations headquarters.
Can you spot the low flying plane, i actually wonder why did they still allow all these low flying planes in New York.
Unforuntately the day when we went it was close...
Desperate measures to get in without realising opposite the street, there was a police station...
whewww thank god the police didn't see us probably sleeping.
Fun shots near the United Nations.
Hey hey i think Trump Casino just collapse.
Back to times square again.
look what we found on the road...
They put a recruitment station in the middle of times square for their armed forces???
We had dinner at Bubba, a theme resturant from the Movie Forest Gump.
And we had a little surprise for Chong Hao, Scott. The Bubba crew sang a birthday song for him and make him dance which he was sporting enough to join in.

Talk about unique and once in a lifetime experience.
And thats not the end, another surprise another cake at the middle of Time Square and this time it was our turn to sing right in the streets. Lucky there was chairs and tables and we made good use of them. Ok, thats really once in a lifetime experience. 
few can say they celebrated their birthday in the middle fo Times Square.
Empire State Building which i don't really think very much except that 'King Kong' climb the building... Anyway to spend $20 to go up, forget it i had been to Taipei 101 and a whole lot of tall towers.
We saw a gift shop with the statue of liberity which we failed to have a proper shot and definitely we won't miss it to have a go at it.
Yah rather then going up, we just went to the lobby and take a few shots. If anything good came out, it was the Walgreens at Empire State Building which surprising sell a whoel lot of groceries at very good prices.
