Staten Island Ferry Terminal, Staten Island, New York City, New York. Saturday May 18th, 2002. Scroll to the right, it goes on for quite a while. If you look closely (and/or know where to look) you can see the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building, the Citicorp Building and my brother Drew (hint: Drewby is inside the ferry, waving). It was a beautiful, cold, grey and very windy day on the most cost-effective tourist destination in the world. The Staten Island Ferry, Ladies and Gentlemen, is free of charge.
