Dave and I had Friday off, so we decided to make good use of the extra day and take a trip into the city. It’s only two hours away from us by train. It’s kind of silly that we don’t go more often. We’re going to make an attempt to visit regularly from now on.
We did a lot of things while we were there, and took a ton of pictures, so I’m going to break up the posts by location. Our first stop was the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space museum.
But first, we found a little Brazillian restaurant called Rice and Beans, which was where we had lunch.

Then it was on to the Intrepid, which is an aircraft carrier that fought in WWII, the Cold War and Vietnam.



We also went in the USS Growler, which is a 50’s-era cruise missile submarine.






The Intrepid also has a Space component, but we were too cheap to pay for that part. Although now that I look at the website, I see that it looks pretty cool. Maybe next time.
NEXT UP- we go on a night time bus tour of the Big Apple!
I’ve driven by it numerous times when I visit. I didn’t know they did tours. I will put it on my list. Very cool photos and post.

Sounds like a great visit to the city! We have a ship p, USS Midway, that has been turned into a museum in San Diego bay. It is quite interesting …..
