Day Trip to New York

Her Nibs.jpg
There are just some things that must be done. Sailing into New York is one of those things, but taking video footage is quite another. With our journey into New York Harbour approaching, we realized we were out of tapes for the video camera. So we decided to take the ferry from Atlantic Highlands to New York City to find them. This is a photo of the Statue of Libery from the ferry. We hope to get a better photo on Wednesday from much closer.

New York is great. It is a toss between New York, Chicago, London or Paris for our favourite city. We walked and walked and walked. Found the video tapes, had lunch at Saks, checked out the marina, bought more minutes for our cell phone, got Chis’ hair cut at Rockefeller Plaza, and had a drink at Mad 28 before heading back on the ferry. A long day, but fruitful and enjoyable.

Tomorrow, a long run along Ocean Blvd, then email/weather/website update in town, then back to the boat for our final preparations for Wednesday’s journey into New York City.

The phrasing sounds as if you dropped Chis's hair off for cutting and then went for a drink.

I throw you both from my office a kiss.
