Statton Island Ferry

Really, perhaps the best way to see the Statue of Liberty is to ride the ferry to Statton Island. It is free and gives you an excellent view. Plus you avoid the long lines, crowds, etc. of the now very limited other trip.

We fell in love with ferrys when we lived in the Seattle area. We rode them wherever we could. Now we love 'em in New York too. Is it any wonder with this kind of entertainment?

Cell phones and strollers, if you have children these seem to be some of the necessary items these days.

Then on the way back the views of the city sky line are good too.

This trip did look fun didn't it?  So I could be right.
