"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you did not do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour, catch the tradewinds in your sails.
Explore,.....Dream,.......Discover."

Mark Twain

New York, New York

      I LOVE NEWYORK ,





 We arrived in New York just as we were tying to a mooring ball the phone was ringing. It was Jim and Asha They were here. We met at the subway and went for dinner and drinks it was amazing. The next day we went exploring, what an amazing city. We rode on the Staten Island ferry and waved at the statue of liberty. we drank beers under the Brooklyn bridge.

 Went to see the memorial at ground zero It was so sad. They are building again. There was a beautifull old church that was beside the towers. That church still stands with no damage and a tree that was found under the rubble still growing. All the names of the people that died that day were engraved in stone around the fountains Beautifully done.


 Enough of the sad stuff we continue on our journey in the subway to time square. More lights and people then you can imagine. Next day Empire state building and Macy`s and Central Park with John Lennon Strawberry fields. All equally as interesting. Came back to the boat to sit through another storm with 45 mile an hour winds. Oh Well crusing life We got to see New York for 30 bucks a night Can you imagine.!!!!!
