More American Breakfast's

Back to Tick Tock for more typical American breakfast's. This morning I decide to go with my pancakes to have a major sugar rush as I have a major day planned in front of me.
This was to boost up my cholestrol as well. Oh and the waffle, I better not get started on that waffle. It's beyond me how anyone could eat that thing. I think you would need a month to shit that out!

Moving right along, today's plan was to see the Statue of Liberty. This involved catching the subway to the wharf where we had to board a ferry. We had to get the tickets from some book shop as well, so we left early in the morning.

While on the Subway an annoucement comes over the PA system stating that anyone that wants to get off at the wharf needs to be in the first four carriages because the platform isn't long enough to fit the whole subway. This is a mad race to the first four front carriages by everyone. I'm suprised I didn't fall over and crack my head open by the lunatics rushing by.

The subway stops and the door slam open. This is when we notice a huge gap between the subway and the platform. We all step into panic mode that we have to jump the one metre. Luckily the subway has a system and it extends so that people do not fall through the gap.

Rushing off the Subway towards the Wharf in search of a bookstore we stroll through the park that has many people setting up shop with NY paintings and photos. Oh and we some how see a huge eagle in the park that for some reason requires a photo of.

We manage to get our tickets from the bookshop before racing off to the Wharf to board. Oh yeah somewhere in between I had to pee. We spot the huge line for the ferry and then spot about 200 people in front. Great this should be fun. Hence the operation to shove people out of the way starts.

We line up only to end up in a security check inside before boarding the ferry. On the ferry we climb to the roof to start the photo session. I panic at the time, thinking maybe I should pop a few motion sickness tablets when I notice that the Statue of Liberty Island is only a 20 minute ferry trip.

While waiting for the ferry I suddently notice a row of women pushing a number of prams. This is when we pull out the cameras. One woman carrying about three or four kids split into a pram. Interesting......
