Roosevelt Island



This is where we almost lived when we moved here a year ago. We ended up in Manhattan instead. It took a whole year for us to get back and go exploring on RI but we finally did. We spent our holiday afternoon walking the river park and seeing the sights. Finally got to ride the famous tram too. Everything is clean and kept that way it seems. Not like the city where it's cleaned 'as needed.' It's nice but there really is nothing around to do. There is also a rehab hospital so we saw a lot of amputees which was gives you a strange feeling. We are glad that we live in Manhattan. Here are some pictures.


Walking the river.


The lighthouse on the northern tip of the island.

Nice trees.


Nicer than Manhattan


...and a nice sunset to finish it off.

Lovely photos; must have been a good day. Seems like it would have been a good, quiet place to live, and you still could have gone into the city for fun. Oh well.
