Yesterday, Tuesday we stayed at one of our best anchorages of the trip and a milestone we have been looking forward to. The anchorage behind the Statue of Liberty in Liberty Park, it was awesome!
Today we had a wonderful day touring the City of Manhattan. We covered a lot of ground by ferry boat, buses and the famous New York Subway. They sure have a great public transportation system.
We started with the Empire State Building Observatory and the great sites of the city. If you look real hard you can see Northern Light across the Hudson River in the Lincoln Harbor Marina in this photo.
Next, we made a visit to Saint Patrick’s Cathedral and said a few prayers of Thanksgiving.
We spent a lot of time at the World Trade Center Memorial & Museum; it was a very moving experience that we will not forget. The photos of all of those lost on 9/11/01 were overwhelming to us.
This photo is the plan for the future WTC, a single tower 110 stories high and memorial park. Building has started and is scheduled for completion sometime in 2012.
