Everything we have done in these past days was included in the pass.
Today we took the New York Water Taxi (all-day pass) to visit the
Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum. This water taxi ride was a 90 minute narrated tour. We only took it up to Pier 86, which is home to the legendary aircraft carrier Intrepid, the space shuttle Enterprise, the world's fastest jets and a guided missile submarine.
We caught our water taxi back to Battery Park thinking we could get the last sail on the schooner, but unfortunately they were sold out so we just carried on. At the mall across from the Transportation Hub (where we catch our subway) a local group were raising money for 'Clean Water' in Africa. Someone was donating $1.00 for every person who took the challenge. These 5 gallon pails were filled with water and each person had to carry two of them. It was a small challenge, but the jugs were heavy!!
We caught our subway train for home earlier than usual, and I have to say I was bagged!! But Michel went back out in the evening. He drove the car to Coney Island. He's heard about Coney Island and being as close as we were to it, he had to check it out. Besides, this too was in the New York City Pass book. So he enjoyed a few hours and rode on all the rides along with all the kids.
