Governors Island, Part 2

I was super excited to recently discover that there is a ferry going straight to Sandy Hook beach leaving from 35th St pier, which means I basically have (semi) direct access to the beach. So past weekend I had big plans, imagining myself laying out on the beach all slathered in SPF 50. Well too bad that the Seastreak ferry website listed the wrong pick up time, so I missed the last morning ferry. Womp womp…

Thankfully I live in a city with tons of daytime excursion options. So we went for plan B instead: Governors Island. Last time I visited the island I felt hurried since I went rather late. This time, since the original plan was to go out to the beach in the early morning, I had the whole day to my disposal. So this visit is was very leisurely in comparison. Hubby and I had a great time moving slowly through the island, enjoying views of the city and Statue of Liberty, picnicking on the lawn, and we even had time to visit historic monuments like the Castle Williams.
