Someone mentioned on another site that she remembers being asked a test question in grammar school, “does the Statue Of Liberty really have sandals on her feet?”
Yes, she has sandals on her feet, she’s moving forward with one foot lifted. She has the mark of the early Romans (toes) still visible in many people today – second toe is longer than big toe and little toe is “hammered”. :)
“Is the Statue of Liberty in New York or New Jersey?”
The statue is part of New York Harbor and sits in Liberty State Park which is in Jersey City, New Jersey. The statue is actually in New Jersey. New York Harbor includes the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, the first stop for all immigrants (1892 – 1954) who arrived in New York by boat.

fantastic presentation. wow
fantastic old world looking photo!
fantastic capture i love it great work
Gorgeous… I just got back from Ellis Island today so I’m looking to see if I have anything even close to this!
Can’t wait to see your photos! This was taken from a boat tour around the tip of Manhattan. My sister and her family came up from Florida for a visit over the summer. They stayed in Times Square and I took them on a tour of Lower Manhattan. I’m in Jersey so New York is one of my favorite places to visit!
