Welcome to our tour of North America. During the month of April we are going to visit our favourite spots in North America. Come join us as we revisit some of our favourite travel spots. No passport or boarding passes required
Today we leave the islands of the Outer Banks and head to one of the best known islands in the world Manhattan. Today is not about the destination itself but the journey we take to get there. When we visited NYC we stayed in NJ and drive to Staten Island to catch the ferry to Manhattan. The ferry is a fun way to get to the city, is free and goes right by the Statue of Liberty. Its also has cheap parking nearby which is about $8-10 per day.
