We woke early and did the free Staten Island Ferry thing and saw the mini statue of Liberty (the Ghostbusters movie sure made it seem bigger than it really is!).
After Going to Staten Island (and almost losing Alissa) and then back we cruised around FiDi. It was a mighty powerful feeling being dwarfed by massive skyscrapers all round. To us this is one of the quintessential feelings of being in a big city- we love this feeling.
We passed the New York Stock Exchange and walked down Wall Street. Matt goofed around next to the George Washington statue in front of the Federal Hall National Memorial. After peaking inside at some very historical pieces we made our way to the very out of place, Trinity Church.

I loved that the nicest building on Wall Street was a church :-)
