Staten Island Ferry, originally uploaded by Chris S Thorpe.
Few things in New York are free. The best bargain in town just might be the free ride on the Staten Island Ferry with it's gorgeous views of New York Harbor. Interestingly, the ferry never really "turns around"..it just changes direction as the stern becomes the bow and vice-versa. One would think that the endless back and forth navigation just might become rather tedious for the crew members!

Table with a view? As the lights come on in Lower Manhattan I regret not having packed my tripod for our sailing adventure. Time to take those "mental pictures"!

The late afternoon sun lights up lower Manhattan...seen from Liberty Landing Marina/Park.

The sweeping view from Liberty Landing Marina is well worth a stop over for any boater! There's plenty to do and see at Liberty Landing, the regular ferry service to Manhattan was a nice bonus.

The view from Liberty Landing Marina is impressive at all hours of the day. Convenient ferry service to Manhattan is from the marina's main dock. A very cool way to visit the City......
