Nyack, NY (return trip)

We left Kingston early on Saturday, August 5 so we could ride the current to Nyack. It was a beautiful sunny day and not too hot. The Hudson River landscape continues to provide a beautiful setting for our journey.





Lighthouses and majestic West Point add to the scenic vistas.







And all along the river we are reminded of our proximity to New York City by the trains that run up and down the coastline.



Archie, as always, is there for a quick, and sometimes extended, cuddle!



We arrived at our anchorage next to the mooring field in Nyack by 2:10.  We are in sight of the Tappan Zee bridge with its unique design.



Jonny had a tough day because his blood pressure kept dropping and he had to stop and rest several times which is not like him. He’s been struggling with fluctuating blood pressure which had been OK for quite a while but is giving him problems again. Another thing to have checked out.

After arriving at our anchorage we took it easy and read and relaxed until 5.  It was not until then that we fed Archie and took him in the dinghy onto shore. We tied up next to a big waterfront park which we walked all around.



This time we didn’t walk all the way into town and instead returned to Zendo.  



We had leftovers for dinner and watched The Italian Job as the sunset and illuminated bridge provided quite a backdrop for our evening.  We will be heading to New York City the next day and will stay for a couple of days at City Island.
