It's early morning in Cape May on July 1 and the weather is perfect for our 150nmile+ trip home to Cos Cob.
NJ has a huge coast...about 100 miles long and at least half of that are beautiful barrier islands. We saw miles of empty beach; loads of quaint looking stretches; and a carousel or two.
Then, on to amazing NYC. I've never had the pleasure of living in NYC but I just love this city and seeing it from the water just makes me love it even more.(Too bad it gets so cold.) We are not in The Carolinas anymore!!!
The Verizano Bridge.
It really is a gorgeous monument.
Batterypark...find the helicopter.
The Brooklyn Bridge.
The Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges
Triborough and ? bridges - notice whitecapping due to currents
The beautiful Chrysler Building.
The impressive Empire State Building.
The South Seaport/Pier17 area.
So long to NYC, Hellsgate water.....hello Long Island Sound.
One of the unique lighthouses in Long Island Sound.
Back in the waters of Greenwich....and, this is our next boat (well, I hope!)
Our last bridge - The Mianus River Railroad Bridge and just 1/4 mile to go.
And, we are home! A wonderful 40 days of new places, new food, and new experiences comes to an end. Now, a whole 2100 square feet of living space....YEAH!! Thanks for coming along for the ride! XOX Jen, Bob and Cass
Awesome ending to a great trip. Great blog, I can feel the excitement of the home stretch through NYC.
