Financial District

Our goal for the remainder of the afternoon was to seek out the famous Fearless Girl Statue. Unbeknown to us, the Fearless Girl Statue had been moved from its original location staring down the Wall Street Bull to a new location nearby staring down the NY Stock Exchange. Jeff googled directions to the Fearless Girl Statue, while I googled the bull sculpture assuming it would lead us to the same place. This led to confusing and contradictory directions from our phones. To add to the confusion, some streets were closed for filming.

We eventually found the bull statue, but no girl. There were two long queues of tourists - one queue lined up to take photos of the bull’s head, the other to pose with the bull’s testicles. We opted not to wait in line. Instead, we went back to our hotel for a quick nap.

That evening after dinner, we again sought out the bull and girl statues - which were thankfully devoid of crowds - and then called it a night.
