Yo estoy maniobrando.





Trying to stay current with things.  Ashley helped me out Monday posting her own narration on her visit! ;)  As she left Monday evening Heidi Beutel and Sarah Virkler took her place!  We celebrated Sarah's 21st birthday and then Tuesday went into the city.  We took a full island cruise around Manhattan!

 Starting out from 42nd street and 12th Ave we headed South down the Hudson.  Tower One is more than a year away from completion.  Seen in the picture it is at about 1000ft.  Finished height projected to be 1700ft. (From left: Heidi B., Sarah V., ?, ?, ?,....) 

 Ellis Island is closed due to clean up and reconstruction after Sandy.  :(

Excited we successfully got one with the Statue of Liberty in the background!   We got lucky!  That green sweatered man was so cheesy he photo bombed his own photos!


 South side Sea Port

Under the Brooklyn Bridge

 
 Heading North on the East River, looking back after passing under the Brooklyn Bridge and the Manhattan Bridge.  Statue of Liberty is seen under the bridges far in the distance.
Closer view


Rounding the top of Manhattan leaving the Bronx River to rejoin the Hudson once again.  Bridge in the background is the Henry Hudson Bridge.  Little bridge in the foreground, rotated to let us pass, is the Spuyten-Duyvil Bridge.

The George Washington Bridge.  I've driven the upper level.  I've driven the lower level.  Now I've passed under as well.
And finally, got to get a group pic in Times Square! L to R: Sarah V., Heidi B., Me

Hasta!
