new york, new york--wall street

 While on Wall Street, we had to stop and see The Bull. I had never heard of it before, but I guess it is a big-time symbol of Wall Street and what it is all about. We didn't want to wait in line to get a picture, so this is as close as we could get. That's okay, the guy posing by the bull got a good one for us. :)

While there, we also went to the Museum of American Finance. They had a running total of our national debt. Kind of depressing, to say the least.

 This is a monopoly game that was made out of real gold and real diamonds...not so depressing!


 Jake reading up on finance stuff...

 Great statue of George Washington on the street. Can I just say I am a total fan of our founding fathers?

 Here we are with Wall Street behind us.


It was nice to go and see Wall Street in person. You always hear about it in the news and in movies, so it is nice to have an idea of what it is really like.
