Isn’t the architecture of New York amazing? We already toured the Empire State Building in Part 1 of my City Guide, but there’s also the Chrysler Building, the Flatiron, the New York Library and Grand Central Station and other hidden gems that pop out at you while you’re walking along on the sidewalk.I love the more »
I know it’s touristy, but I really wanted to visit the Statue of Liberty. Lady Liberty in her green dress and her crown and her ice cream cone torch are amazing! And I had to see her up close. Unfortunately, I didn’t know that if you want to see up her skirt inside her, you more »
