America's Top Attractions: Three Of Them Are Right Here!

America's Top Attractions:  Three Of Them Are Right Here!
BY PAM LOBLEY
NEWJERSEYNEWSROOM.COM

If you’re looking for some fun or enriching things to do this summer and are on a budget, you are in luck.  Travel and Leisure Magazine has just published a list of its top free attractions in the United States.   They include touring a Harley Davidson factory to see how the famous motorcycles come together, the Alamo in San Antonio (remember?), and the J. Paul Getty Museum in Malibu, California.

The list also includes stuff you can do from New Jersey, and I’m not talking about Snooki sightings in Seaside Heights, although that could be enjoyable.

The three suggested attractions are not specifically in our state, but close enough to very easily to enjoy.  First up is the Staten Island Ferry which is free every day.  It offers beautiful views of the Manhattan skyline and you’ll get a good look at the Statute of Liberty.  You can ride outside on the deck, or sit inside and be sheltered from the wind and weather.  It’s New York’s biggest bargain.

Also in New York is the National September 11 Memorial.   A beautiful and peaceful tribute to all who died that day, it is free, but it does require advanced reservations.
