ok... back to new york... :)
this time we took the staten island ferry! its always nice to see the skyline of a city from the water, and even better if you dont have to pay for it. and... the staten island ferry is free! it goes very frequent and provides you with a 30 minute ride during which you can try every setting on your camera to get the best picture... if still not satisfied, there is still the way back to manhattan... :D
when on staten island we didnt see anything in the immediate vicinity of the terminal that could entertain us, aside from an au bon pain to get some food, so we went straight back.... the ferry is huge! and its also good to have an hour rest from all the walking through new york while just enjoying the view of manhattan, ellis island and the statue of liberty....
above you see another staten island ferry (i like that they are yellow... :) ), to the left you see new jersey, with their tallest (and my favorite) building; the hackensack building, and to the right manhattan...

new york
the city that has become my friend..
fun lovin' criminals!!

Nice photo with the ferry at the right. I did the same, very dutch he, for free with the ferry and go back straight away, but nice to give your feet a rest indeed.
oh quel dommage, tu n'as pas visite un petit peu Staten Island, pourtant c'est tres beau. En prenant le bus 40 tu peux visiter "Snug Harbor Botanical Gardens" qui est un parc magnifique (bientot des photos sur mon blog) , apres juste a la sortie du terminal staten island, tu as le Memorial du 11 septembre, et en prenant le metro tu peux aller visiter "Historic Richmond Town". J'adore ce quartier de NYC.
Sinon ta photo est magnifique, un beau poster.
