ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS TO PORT JEFFERSON, NEW YORK

DAY 5 - JULY 21ST, 2008



We rode the current through the East River and New York City. Then we travelled east on Long Island Sound to Port Jefferson, New York (which is on the north shore of Long Island).

They have also found an inovative way to house the bad boys and girls.

The midday heat had us looking forward to the coolness of the northern waters. The deck of the boat was too hot to walk on with bare feet.



Those who live on Long Island have a slightly different way of life. Most people commute to work --- some by car, some by train, some by ferry, and some even by helicopter.
