Anchorage Calf Islands, Greenwich, CT

We were expecting a thunderstorm so when we saw a bright light we were surprised to see a nearby fireworks display. An unexpected treat. Awhile later the thunderstorm arrived.

View from our anchorage--Greenwich, CT

Throgs Neck Bridge



Plane landing at LaGuardia Airport



Just one of the scenes on the East River


United Nations


Seaplane taking off in the East River


Williamsburgh Bridge


Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan Bridge


South Street Seaport on the East River




NYC skyline from the Battery
This is where we crossed our wake--we have completed the LOOP! Over 7000 miles, two foreign countries and we are still talking!!!


Buttermilk Channel with Governor's Island and Manhattan in the background



Lady Liberty--a great sight



Since we were going up the East River we decided to go the eastern route of the harbor, Brooklyn is in the background



Verazanno Narrows Bridge. The day was not the best--a lot of smog so that you cannot see NYC


Lighthouse at the end of Chapel Hill Channel



These were just a few of the fishing boats in Raritan Bay--can there be any fish left?


A crane barge!


Fort Hancock, Sandy Hook. Atlantic Highlands High School has a field hocky field to the right of the houses. It is a beautiful setting with the ocean on one side and Raritan Bay on the other. I enjoyed the view a few times when our daughter, Laura, played for Holmdel against Atlantic Highlands
