Quick Staten Visit

It was a really quick ferry ride, and this is what Foo saw went they pulled into Staten Island. A lot of logs...
He was glad he was on the boat and didn't have to swim and navigate all those pillars. That could be awkward.
Yup, that was all he saw of the island. Now he's already on his way out. Thrilling...

Just a Little Liberty

While Foo was on the ferry, they gradually got closer and closer to the real Statue of Liberty, but since Hurricane Sandy had recently come to visit, they couldn't go much closer.
Still, Lady Liberty must get tired holding her hand up all the time. Foo knows a thing or two about holding a pose for a very very long time.










Her really though the view was excellent, and even though he couldn't quite shake her hand, he gave a good Foo salute and a smile from the boat.
 

Ferry Tales

Even though there were no actual fairies to be found as Foo had thought, he did get to learn about real brewed tea and sit among the locals.
And boy was the view of the harbor awesome! Shiny sun... so amazing...

Harboring Thoughts

As Foo prepared to get onto the ferry, he took a look over the harbor. He was told that was New Jersey, but it didn't look very new.
But once out on the water, he was so excited with the wind in his teeth and the sun on the sparkling water. Too bad it was a tad chilly.

Ferry Boat Mother

Foo didn't really want to leave New York City, but he did want to get full views of the city and he heard there was also a Statue of Liberty (a bigger one) in the harbor. He was excited to go on the big boat, especially since there would be fairies!
