Bayonne, New Jersey
We woke up to a glorious day as we
docked at Cape Liberty cruise port at
Bayonne; the view of the New York sky-
line and the Statue of Liberty was inspir-
ing. No one will confuse this working
container port with the scenic coastal
stops that we had experienced the last
12 days. The cruise terminal itself is
pretty sketchy with little in way of cruis-
er comfort.
The pick-up area for transport was cha-
otic with long lines of folks waiting for
their prearranged transport and taxis.
Despite the clumsy exit, the cruise was
a memorable one and left us wanting
more. We didn’t find a lot of dazzling
leaves to peep at, but we did find won-
derful hosts, breathtaking scenery, new
friends, a fun-filled cruise, and of course,
great food and wine.
Once our driver finally showed up, we
were off to New York City for three more
days of adventure … and that we did, but
that’s another story.
Mary and Ron after three weeks of leaf peeping and
ready to go home. Opposite: Cape Liberty cruise port
at Bayonne; the view of the New York skyline and
the Statue of Liberty from our veranda.
