New York was our last port of call as well as the end of our cruise. We got up early at 6 AM to get a good spot at the bow of the ship to view the Statue of Liberty as we entered New York Harbor. I became very emotion as we past Lady Liberty, because I am an immigrant to this wonderful country and I am very aware of how different my life could have been.
We stayed overnight in mid town Manhattan. We were able to walk to Rockefeller Plaza, there we took an elevator to the "Top of the Rock" as it's called and got to see the most awesome views of New York.
We also found some hidden treasures in the middle of this concrete jungle. We found small urban parks nestled between buildings off of busy avenues. New Yorkers like to have places where they can go to enjoy beauty and nature even if they have to squeeze it in. We will definitely go back.
