Times Square. Lady Liberty. Twin Tower memorial.

Today I had a late start and overslept and just really wanted to lay in bed so I went and got Subway and then headed back to the apt when I then realized they were filming some kind of movie outside! stoked. found out all kinds of famous people are around me. I also ran into Leighton Meester literally. quite fun haha.

but once I was up and about I went back to St. Paul's and Trinity church and got to go inside and actually read the grave sights. So crazy to think that some of them are from the mid 1700's. I loved seeing all of this and really getting to read them and see what they had to say. it was Beautiful! and I saw Alexander Hamilton burial sight and where George Washington went to church! (history geek moment) :)
Trinity Church is exactly across from the Twin Towers memorial and it was moving to see how this church helped the firefighters and the people that day. That Church played such an important role in keeping people calm and in God's word and it was just super moving. I loved it.

I went on the Staten Island Ferry (the boats in Deja Vu, the movie) hehehe anywaysss I went on that because it is FREE and it takes you by Miss Liberty and it was nice to see it so much closer! beautiful (definitely another history geek moment)

I then had to go to the Apple store to get a new phone. but what is new 4th iPhone and its working so far! great news haha 3 story Apple store though! beautiful! and a live band playing on the first floor it was crazy!

tomorrow should be eventful. last full day in NY. China town, Little India, Little Italy and some vintage shopping as well. stoked! and then a Broadway show at night with the cousin and her friends from school.

here are some pictures from the day

Enjoy!!

much love,
Ashley
