Space Shuttle & Statue of Liberty
Attended a citizenship ceremony today, and it happened to be the day the Space Shuttle, recently retired, was due to flyover the city. We went out of the ceremony in the courthouse and walked over to the Hudson just in time to catch the shuttle, piggy backed on a 747, flying down the Hudson River.

After seeing the shuttle flyby, we decided to be uber patriotic and visit Ellis Island. Here are some shots of the Statue of Liberty from the ferry.
