When next in New York City, be sure to take in some sailing if you’re there in summer or fall. Below are some fabulous shots sailing along the Hudson off of Pier 25.
Taking off before the sun “set.”
^^Views from the pier. There’s mini-golf and sand volleyball — it’s pretty amazing!
^^Peak-a-boo Statue of Liberty.
^^We were all fascinated with that gorgeous boat in the background. It looked so fancy and old-school!
^^Towing the line. Or rowing the hoe. I may not have picked up on any nautical terms during this little adventure.
^^ Coming back into the harbor, we noticed the Empire State Building was purple and pink. So fun!
^^ After our sail we sat at the picnic tables near the water and ate the chocolate cake Carla had baked for Ryan. A perfect way to end the evening!
