New York Adventures with Sarah Part 4

We went to a Spy Museum. This is a replication of the Oval Office. 
This motorbike is designed to be folded up real small so the soldiers or spy can parachute out of a plane and have a way to get around quickly in enemy territory. They can unfold it and zoom there they go. 
They use to send pigeons into enemy camps and have little cameras attached to the pigeons and they were the perfect spy. No one suspected them and they were able to capture all kinds of intelligent information.

Interesting guns.
And into the vault we went. 
Whoopi Goldberg 
We also went to Madam Tussauds the wax museum.
This is Madam Tussaud
Amelia Earhart 
Marilyn Monroe 
Rafiki from Lion King
Firefighters from 9/11
John Wayne. He is a western hero for us. 
My mom loves John Wayne and growing up we watched a lot of his shows. 
The Beatles
Jonas Brothers
On Saturday Graciela was able to go exploring with us. 
We went and did a tour of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. 
It was so fun to have Graciela spend the day with us. 
Another cool motorcycle. This is made by the same guy who made the one at the WTC. 



Sarah and I in front of the Statue of Liberty. 
Graciela having a good time. 
She is so tall it just amazes me. 
We were exhausted and tired and had to wait for the 
next boat as we just missed the one that was leaving.  
We had time on Saturday to go and do some work at the Manhattan Temple. It is always fun to get to work at the different Temples and see how they are different and similar.
