New York City! Statue, Wall Street, 9/11, and Hamilton!

*lack of sleep and long days is taking its toll. Just like yesterday, minimal narrative till I have brains to do it*

Happy New York Day! We start our day with breakfast. Also, Happy Birthday, Sophia! Way cool you got to spend your birthday here in NYC. 


On to the subway we go! We took the subway to Battery Park at the southern tip of Manhattan to get on the boat to the Statue of Liberty.













Youʻll notice a new person in our picks. Long time Kualapuʻu New York tour guide, Robert Westfield is showing us around New York. He is truly amazing and so great with the kids. 





Iʻll have the individuals of the students when I get them from the chaperones. We got back so late from Hamilton that most people went straight to their rooms.



After the boat ride it was a walk through Southern Manhattan.


Wall Street

Our girls with the Fearless Girl statue out side Wall Street

After eating lunch we went to visit the scene of the September 11, 2991 terrorism attacks. Kids did a great job of going to this museum. 














Up to the top of the World Trade Center!













Dinner videos may not work yet. They will when I have time.


After taking the subway back to our hotel, we got a little dressed up for Hamilton.

Hamilton!


Happy Birthday again, Sophia! How cool to get to spend your birthday here in NYC! and see Hamilton!
Special cupcake for birthday girl


Aaron treated us to strawberry cheesecake and regular cheesecake after Hamilton for those that wanted to try it out. 






Another full day tomorrow in NYC then one last bus ride up to Boston. Sorry so short folks. Canʻt keep my eyes open.
