We got an early start as we knew we wanted to get past NYC today as we had heard on the news that the situation there is quite serious. However we did not hear until we were underway that the harbour is closed to all pleasurecraft. So now we are anchored just north of the George Washington bridge waiting for the harbour to open. Information is hard to get so who knows how long we will be here. Oh well, the sun is out and Al is putting the BBQ back up - hot dogs for lunch and roast for dinner!
This evening we learned we can request an exemption for travel through the harbour. Tomorrow morning we will call and hope to get moving. The lights have started to come on in some areas of the city and we have a nice view of George Washington Bridge from our anchorage.
