September 14 - New York Harbor

I’ve been home a week and I wasn’t going to write anything else about the Sojourn cruise, but I thought I should add something about sailing into New York harbor.  I’ve done it before but each time it is thrilling and moving.  As I passed the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island I thought of what it must have been like for some of my ancestors to see that sight as they began a new life here in the United States. This country was one of great promise to them and I hope it still is to us today.
