May 28, 2007. After taking the Statue of Liberty tour, we walked around Battery Park for a while until we found ourselves buying “cheap” shirts off ambulant vendors on the pedestrian sidewalk just across the Wall Street bull.

After having our photos taken with the famed bull sculpture, we walked a few more blocks before hailing a cab that would take us to the Empire State Building. Just the other day, the line leading to the Empire State Building observatory stretched all the way around the pedestrian sidewalk surrounding the block. Fortunately for us when we got there, the lines were pretty short and we got ourselves to the top of the building in no time, after of course, paying exorbitant tourist fees.
