Statue of Liberty

Anna Claire turned 8 this year so it was her turn for the New York trip with Grammy.  I was able to tag along and captured these pictures at the Statue of Liberty.  The weather was very overcast, lots of fog, but made for some good black & whites.

Even with the bad weather, I was pleased with the way these came out in black & white.

Federal Hall

My final "National Park Quest" visit of the trip.....was a journey to Federal Hall.  This is the first capital of the United States and the location that George Washington took the oath of office as our first President.  It was interesting because there was a protest going on outside.  Located right next to the New York Stock Exchange on Wall st., they were protesting the bank bailout.  Allie was very curious about what they were yelling.  I explained our freedom of speech.
