Stop 3 - Statue of Liberty and Ellis island

Ao the kids and I spent our second day at the Statue of Liberty. We parked by Liberty Park in New Jersey where we took the boat over to the island. It was another hot day but today we were prepared worh lots of water and food. We had spent the night in a small house 30min from the park so I went to the grocery store and got pasta and other things to make a picnic with.

Passing Ellis Island, which we would visit after Statue of Liberty. 

Picnic on Liberty island by the statue.

Making fun picture with the statue :-)

Tickling her :-)

The water mist sprays felt really good in the heat!

In the museum. 

Ellis island, where around 12 million immigrants arrived between 1890s and 1950s. We were really tired when we arrived to island but walked around the museum for a little bit. We could have spent a lot more time there but we were tired and we needed to drive to Hartford Connecticut to pick up Alex. 

Back at Liberty park, NJ and the train station that has not been used in a long time. Another quick picnic before heading out.
