Day 9: New York City

Today we jumped on the subway for the first time and headed down one of my top three things of the trip, the 9/11 Memorial.  It was so beautifully made and beyond emotional; I'm pretty positive both Dad and I cried at one point.  We then visited Hamilton's gravesite, Wall Street Bull/Financial District, and jumped on the Staten Ferry for the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.  The kids weren't too excited about Ellis Island but didn't complain and were glad they went.  Even though the day was fantastic; the night was by far the highlight of the day, we went to Lion King on Broadway.  Even though Dad and I had previously seen it, watching their eyes light up and appreciating the theatre made it feel new again.
