Day 3

Started off our day at the local coffee shop. It was hard to find one that wasn't a chain but we did! And I got my new favourite, a ginger spiced latte. From there we got the train to the world trade centre and saw the 9/11 memorial which was amazing and heart breaking. Saw a few names of women that said, and their unborn child. Really pulled at the heart strings. We then headed off on a cruise to see the Statue of Liberty which was amazing. It was a 2.5 hour cruise and took us around the entire island of manhattan so we got a few great pics. Then we grabbed a quick bite and went to Intrepid which I was not exactly looking forward to as it was a museum with ships and aeroplanes etc but it actually wasn't bad. It was a huge ship that had aircrafts on top to be able to fly out support to the people at war. It was a huge ship and chris really enjoyed all the aeroplanes due to his aero sexuality. We stayed their until it closed at 5 then we headed in to time square. What a mistake. As soon as it gets dark in time square, all the millions of tourists come out to stand in our way and fill up all the bars. We decided we couldn't stand all the crowds and headed back to Jersey and got take away pizza and wings and ate at our BnB. Another early night.
