July 2 2014Another return visit. Amazing as always and this time we got to share it with our Granddaughter. We did not get crown tickets as there is a 6 month wait now, we will have to plan the next trip sooner.

This was a return trip but this time we spent more time at Ellis Island due to the Statue of Liberty being closed for remodeling. This site is a must visit site with so much to take in.
