We arrived in New York in the middle of September (the 18th) and were very busy for our short stay. We visited the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Another day we went to Chinatown and Litttle Italy. There was a festival going on in Little Italy celebrating one of the saints. We spent another day at the Botanical Gardens, and then met up with the family we met in Mystic Seaport for a day at the Natural Science Museum and Earth and Space Center. Before leaving on the afternoon of the 23rd, Justin, Josephine and Tracy walked through Central Park and spent a quick hour and a half in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Each of us got to pick one area that we wanted to see. Maybe another time we will get to stay longer.
From New York we made an overnight trip to Cape May, NJ. arriving before dark on the 24th where we waited overnight for the early morning low tide. It was tight but our boat just made it under the two bridges without scraping the top of the mast! Michael was biting his nails while I refused to look up.
