Day 3 - Ellis Island & Central Park

On day three we took the ferry to Ellis Island.

Any opportunity to go on a boat and I'm there.

Some views from the boat - it was gorgeous:

This was both of our first times seeing the Statue of Liberty up close.

We arrived at Ellis Island...

It was such a neat place.

We learned so many things about Ellis Island and immigration.

We were able to watch a documentary while we were there about the history of it all...it was fascinating.

We really enjoyed our time at Ellis Island - definitely worth the $13 it cost to go there.  Isn't that cheap?  You get to explore Ellis Island, watch a documentary, learn so much information, AND go on a boat ride?

It's a great deal.

Next on our list was Central Park - another first for both of us.

It rained most of the time we were there, but I suppose it just added to the experience :)
We didn't get many pictures due to the downpour, but we got a couple.

 I love this picture (taken by Dusty):

The water view from the park trail was beautiful.

And I just wanted to show that there were a lot of tennis courts in the park...I miss tennis.

Anyways, we had an awesome day on day three.
