Staten Island Ferry

Downtown again for lunch by the waterfront and then on to meet the lovely Felice (aka Dawdler) under the 'D' at the Staten island ferry terminal.   Blippers are such lovely people, we got on straight away and spent the next few hours chatting and trying to get sneaky shots of interesting people.  We went on the ferry to Staten island and back, for said people and for me to take the classic view of NY from the water .... it had to be done.

Was lovely to meet Felice and I hope we can meet again, on one continent or another!
