We're about to wrap up our New York trip. Currently packing to catch our flight bright & early in the morning.
Yesterday we watched the U.S. Open women's finale and witnessed Serena Williams lose not only the match but her temper. She took out her subpar tennis out on the umpire by arguing a call, which ended up getting her a penalty and costing her the first set. While Samantha Stosur played good, solid tennis, Serena lost it on her own. My advice to Ms. Williams: less attitude, more tennis.
Now if only Kim Clijsters had been there!

As we were wandering around today, there was a short scare when we looked up and saw that
a roof was on fire! Just a transformer fire, it seems ....

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.
