June 27th - Boad Tour

Since the Empire State Building took less time then anticipated we ended up with some extra time. Grandma was interested in going on a boat tour. So with our handing map and some help from a local we made our way to the piers. It was kind of stressful for a while there, but we made it (just barely) onto the last 3 hour tour...very relaxing.

They had a gentleman describing what we saw and told stories about the area.








We went by the Intrepid. Someday we're going to go back and actually take a tour of it. How COOL would that be?!

It rained hard, but breifly and then we were treated with this lovely view.


Melanie informs me that we went under a total of 27 bridges during our tour. The most notable being the B. M. W. (Brooklyn, Manhattan, Williamsburg)


I would recommend a boat tour, or at least a ride on the Ferry to anyone who visits NY.
