Lady Liberty

It was such a freezing day and the Big Line struck again but it was outside =( A few hours of waiting while snow gently fell around us made me desperate enough to try a large, soft, warm pretzel. Eugh too much salt and not enough flavour, I do not know why they are popular.

There were many entertainers that busked for money to those lining up, probly the best was a man who played Fur Elise on steel drums (for the oldies, its not actually a drum but an instrument from the Carribean) There were also food stalls along the way selling hot chocolate, coffee and these pretzels (eugh!) While I line up to get a hot chocolate to delay the hypothermia, I noticed a squirrel creep in from the trees and go over to the boxes of doughnuts behind the food van, it was sniffing the air and walking round trying to find a way in, it was the cutest thing!





Mel and I are on the boat to go to Staaten Island, residence of the statue of liberty. And next up we are on Staaten Island with Manhattan as our backdrop, Mel is being a poser hahahaha
