Made our way into New York city today. Water Taxi from the boat to Port Washington, a walk up to the train station, and $48 for return tickets for the three of us to Pen Station. Very cool, and about 40 minutes we were in Manhattan.

We spent some time in Times Square of course. Visited the M&M Store, Nintendo Store, Lego Store, and FAO Schwarz. Aria got some treats, and we picked up a few gifts.

I picked up a lego poinsettia for christmas on the boat, which should be fun to build in December.

We made our way back to Port Washington, and back to the boat. New York City is always such a fun place to visit. The insanity of it all is something else. We'll plan to maybe spend a bit more time in the city on the way back home, but for now we are still hoping to make it further south as soon as possible, so we are going to get going and sail through New York tomorrow.

We should say, Port Washington is such a great stop over. Having the water taxi service, and cheap mooring has been really great, and Port Washington itself is very beautiful and convenient to amenities. And it's only a short train ride to New York City on top of it all. Wonderful.
