Next was the trip to Liberty Island and the Statue of Liberty. The students first ate lunch, visited to the souvenir store and then walk around Liberty Island and took pictures of the statue. It was quite cold and the wind reddened each person's face. After the students took pictures, all took the boat back to the WPSD bus to start the journey home.
