The Big Apple

We flew to Michigan on Friday and returned yesterday. Thank you, Megan and Southwest Airlines! Spent Saturday with Mom and my family and Sunday with Roger's. Dave & Marion's 50th wedding anniversary party was so nice and it was great to see family and friends for a happy occassion.
We drove to New York City today. We were like Dora & Boots when we arrived - "We did it, we did it!" Driving in this city traffic is definitely a challenge but Roger did well. Two different people we met, at other campgrounds, told us to take the Palisades Parkway, from CT to NY, and not the highway the GPS was suggesting, so we planned our directions accordingly. We got to the turn off and the sign says "Car traffic only" - we had to pull off the road and make a major navigational change!
The "campground" (cement parking lot with water & electric) is at a marina on the New Jersey side of the Hudson River. The ferry dock is just across the parking lot and we can see the Statue of Liberty from the motorhome. We are sitting here watching commuters get off the ferry and head for home. We are taking an all day tour of the city tomorrow. Supposed to be warm but raining - beats cold and raining!
