Thursday after we’d spent so much time with the Statue of Liberty we were about frostbitten, we headed into the museum to thaw out. The museum had just opened in May, so even those of us who had been to New York before had never see it. Such interesting information about her. This is one of her curls that had to be replaced during the restoration in 1986, in celebration on her 100th birthday. We learned that the copper that she is made out of is the thickness of two pennies. I can’t believe she hasn’t corroded completely away. Amazing.
After we left there we headed to the Empire State Building, to see the lights of the city. The museum there was also very interesting. There were some great exhibits about all of the movies, TV shows, magazines, etc, that included the Empire State Building, especially King Kong. So fun!
