And off to NYC we go.....we left the dock at 9:15 Am and made the 40 mile run to NY Harbor.....it really was a thrill for us.......as we saw so many of the sights that we had seen before, but have not re-visited in the past 35 years or so. We arrived at the Liberty Landing Marina at 1:00PM. I guess I am no longer use to NYC and it's prices. This was the most expensive marina to date, costing us $167.80 for one night's dockage

| Spunten Dival Bridge, seperating the Bronx from Manhattan, and crossingthe Harlem River. |
First we kissed the Tappan Zee good-bye, and through the haze and light fog the GW Bridge came into view. On the way south we went throgh Dobbs Ferry, NY and as I remeber it, The Mercy Motherhouse, where my sister Angela entered the convent was now a group of condos.
Then came the Sputen Dival bridge, which seperates the Bronx from Manhattan.....via the Harlem River.
