Welcome Gentle Readers to day 2 of our New York extravagaza.
Thanks to the time change Robert had us up really early.
As our hotel (hotel 91) was very close to the Brooklyn bridge we decided to walk across the bridge and find the view that is on Lena's jigsaw. We wanted to find the carousel and I really wanted to find the view that you can see in the picture below.
This is Robert on Janes Carousel.
Robert and Lena enjoying the view of Manhatten from Brooklyn.
After walking so far we decided to take the train to Battery Park where we were going to take the Staten Island ferry. Before we went Robert did his impersonation of the Statue of Liberty. You can see it below.
The ferry itself was great and it gave us some wonderful views of New York, Ellis Island and The Statue of Liberty....
.....and the US Coastguard waving their big guns around.
Staten Island was not that exciting but the weather was sunny and warm. Robert fed the seagulls and we got amazing views of the city.
On our return to Manhatten we walked to the Capitalist centre of the universe.
We also went to the 9/11 Memorial.
And we saw the tallest building in New York close up.....
.....and this couple enjoying the sunshine (check where her hand is)
