Statue of Liberty

Must go in NYC of course...but didn't think of going until my fd had extra tickets to Liberty Island (where the Statue sits).

自由神像....在遠方迷濛



















Close up...from the front



















The back



















Ellis Island..in the 1800s all immigrants from Europe must go through the building on this island to determine whether they are allowed into America (most of them would pass; less than 2% gets sent back)















Getting off the boat to Ellis Island..just like the people 200 years ago.














Baggage claim...haha














Waiting hall..














The "Judgement" room...where the US immigration determine certain questionable people can enter into the US.















Other exhibits in the building (don't ask why)...Barbies of the World




















Note what the guy is saying..















Finally....heading back to Manhattan

  1. Why did the guy say that? Very funny.

    I actually didn't go there during my study in the States.
