We realised that two days were not
enough in New York. On the first day, we saw, among others, the Statue of
Liberty and the Empire State Building. We did not know that, with the package
deal tickets we had, we could go upto the pedestal or crown of Lady Liberty. We
couldn’t purchase tickets on the Island either, since there were no counters. Each
of us walked at one’s pace, listening to the audio tour. It was almost dark and
we had to make it in time for the Empire State Building visit. We had a breath-taking
view, after dark, of all the skyscrapers we saw by day! We had to walk miles
(actually), after losing our way initially, to have a homely dinner at Saravana
Bhavan. Most of us were strict vegetarians, so we were relieved that we did not
have to ask detailed questions regarding the ingredients of the food, before
ordering.
Here are some
pics…enjoy!
