time4me2fly Posted September 11, 2010 #26 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Radio - looking forward to your Live cruise review. This is an itinerary that I haven't tried, yet. Maybe you will be able to convince me to give it a try. Happy sailing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Radio Posted September 11, 2010 Author #27 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Hello everyone. . . I grabbed a bite to eat, and went over to Liberty Park. I thought it would be nice to take the ferry to the Statue of Liberty from Liberty Park. I guess I should have read the brochure that I brought with me. . . The last Ferry leaves for Ellis Island, and the Statue at 2:30. . . Grrrr. . . Oh well, I was still able to get a few pics while I was there. I should have stayed a little longer, and could have taken some better pics of the Twin Tower Lights about an hour later. I hung out there for a while, but decided to go over to the 911 Memorial over near Cape Liberty. The lights were lit up, and it looked beautiful. There were a lot of photographers there as well thinking the same thing. I may try to go over early tomorrow to visit Ellis Island and Lady Liberty. Here are a few pics from the day. . . Many more pics will be posted tomorrow, because. . . Well. . . Tomorrow is Cruise Day ! Thanks for tuning in ! Radio Manhattan Skyline at dusk The weather was a little cool, and a little windy Statue Cruises returns to Liberty Park with the last tour At the top of the hill in Liberty Park you can see the NYC Skyline clearly The Statue of Liberty is visible beyond Ellis Island Here is the view from Harbor View Park at the 911 Memorial at Cape Liberty. .

Submariner Posted September 11, 2010 #29 Share Posted September 11, 2010 I'd love to get your opinion on the Explorer MDR food. I did the same trip as you last month and was very disappointed in the quality of the food. Gone down IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
