Sunset at South Ferry

This friday evening nithya and I decided to do something different from the usual friday routine.

We took our most frequented 1 train to South Ferry . South Ferry is the last station on this train and also the tip of manhattan. From this station there's the staten island ferry connecting manhattan with staten island.

Our plan was to go to Battery Park , a small park near south ferry, where we thought we would find kids playing and it would be fun to just sit and watch them and the sunset on hudson bay.
But unfortunately yesterday was terribly windy and there was no one around :(

Well, that didn't dampen our spirits, thanks to the Starbucks nearby and the smart coffee vendor who impressed us with his service ;)

Wondering where to go and what to do , now that "Vayu Deva" of New York had foiled our plans we trudged into the subway station. Luckily we found some nice seats in the staten island ferry waiting area with a lovely view of the bay. "Surya Narayan" was planning to set into the Hudson Bay and we kept admiring him and the smart guys and gals of New York off and on!

Daylight soon dwindled into twilight and twilight into the nightscape of new york and it was time to get back home .

The two sojourners hopped back into their most frequented 1 train and kept talking of gaucemole nachos, aurobindo ashram, and amitabh bacchan all the way back home ...

As the train pulled into Lincoln Center we felt the aura of our all time favorite star who was present at that very moment at Lincoln Center above us!!

the excitement grew and the two fans were elated for a few moments and then like a wave it died down into the Hudson as the train sped back to the Bronx :)
