Day 24,
Went and visited the USS Intrepid & USS Growler. These are decommissioned US Navy vessels. The Intrepid an aircraft carrier and the Growler a submarine used in the cold war against Russia. There was also one of the Space Shuttles The Enterprise and a Concord on display. All were excellent. We got a surprise as to just how big the space shuttle is.
We then caught the hop on hop off bus again to to do the uptown loop of Manhattan which again was very interesting. We got off at Central Park and took a Horse and Buggy ride around the park. Most enjoyable. Tomorrow we fly to Toronto to start the Canadian and Alaskan leg of the trip. So not sure when the next installment will be forthcoming.
