The last ferry I was on went from Manhattan to Staten Island. It was a rather “blah” ride. The only good thing was seeing the Statue of Liberty. What am I missing?
Did you go to Mandolin Brothers on Staten Island? If you didn't, then you missed the reason to go to Staten Island. One of the world's best stringed instrument shops.
Bryan and I used to ferry from Vallejo to San Francisco every once in a while when we lived in
Benicia. We always had a great time, but that’s not unusual for us, LOL! There is plenty to see
in San Francisco Bay, so that makes it nice as well.
When we lived in Southern California and visited San Francisco, we made a habit of walking all
around the entire city, up and down the hills, Lombard Street, and all over the waterfront. There
is so much to see and do! Those are some of my most precious memories.
