Thank you so much, Marty and Roger for taking us to the Statue of Liberty! We had such a great time! We loved swimming with you at the hotel on Friday and hiking up 364 stairs to the crown of the Statue of Liberty. We were all such troopers! It was tough, hot, and humid! It was supposed to be rainy, so poor Jacob ended up caring our rain coats and umbrellas all over the island. The kids did a really good job climbing up to the top. They were so excited when they reached the to,p that they wanted to just head down without even looking out the crown windows. When they saw the steep spinning stairs headed down, they were nervous. You can't carry any one because of safety. There aren't any nets to catch you. So, poor Abbi fussed the whole time down because it was so scary for her. Jacob was at the front coaxing her down. We were all cheering her on. The kids were in the middle. I was at the end of us, with Roger and Marty just behind me. I heard this jubilant, "YES, I DID IT!!!" Jacob said she thrust her fists in the air. Abbi was so proud of herself when she reached the pedestal and there were no more scary spinning stairs. What a great opportunity. It was awesome! We loved it!!

I've always wanted to climb the Statue of Liberty. But after seeing your pictures, maybe I don't.... ;) Abbi should be proud of herself. That was quite the accomplishment!
