Yesterday was an awesome day with great weather. We visited the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island and a few other spots in Battery Park. There was some crazy security going on, though. I lost track of all the scanners we had to go through to get to the places we wanted to see.

Being the good tourists that we were, we snapped a lot of photos and topped off the day with dinner and beers with some friends.

Earlier this week, it had been raining cats and dogs, so the U.S. Open women's finale has been postponed until tomorrow, which leaves our day wide open. We're going to introduce some friends to dim sum and then maybe visit the World Trade Center site and Central Park.
