STATUE OF LIBERTY

AUGUST 31, 2018.....WHAT AN AWSOME DAY ❗️

We officially “Crossed our Wake” today at the Statue of Liberty😊. 

Finishing The Great American Loop on our 33rd Wedding Anniversary ... It’s Golden for us💛!

Today is a double celebration of pure love, joy, happiness and with heartfelt gratitude we would like to THANK YOU ♥️ for sharing this incredible day with us (no matter where you are) ❌⭕️.

Looper Tip: Take some extra time to remember and reflect on your favorite photos, port stops and memories along the unbelievable Great American Loop Adventure. We will share this in another blog post in a few days ⭐️.

Today we traveled about 16 miles from Staten Island to Liberty Landing Marina.

❌to ❌ the red line. 

It was probably the roughest day on the water of the entire Loop.

We actually had second thoughts about our departure ... with 20+ knot winds, 5 foot seas on our beam and spray reaching us on the flybridge? 

Boats of all sizes in New York Harbor.

The exciting New York City Skyline.

Once inside the Harbor the wind and seas calmed down.

Time to “Stop and Smell the Roses”
