Feeling Bullish on Wall Street

Did you know that New York was originally named “New Amsterdam” by the Dutch?

Those same settlers also built a large wall to protect them from the Algonquin Indians. That very same wall is where Wall Street gets its name.

As you can see, we weren’t the only folks who wanted to pose with the famous bull statue, but we got our chance. I’m sure it makes good people-watching for the doorman across the street.

Along the way, we found public restrooms in the basement at TJ Maxx, after which, Constantin and Maria found (and bought!) some fluffy towels on sale. It was fun explaining the concept of a “bargain basement” to them.Weiterlesen
