Our 100th cache and our 1st earth cache. Fantastic reading up about estuaries. Thanks for encouraging us to visit the area. The esplanade was beautiful. It was my wife's 30th birthday and we had a fantastic afternoon walking along the coast. Tftc. Definitely receives one of our favourites.
We spent one week in NYC with a detour to the Niagara Falls and focused on EC’s and VC’s on the way between all major sights in these impressing locations.
We tried to find the right answers and asked also some people who also enjoyed the beautiful weather.
Thank you for this interesting EC!
TFTC and greetings from Austria!

What a nice park!
We liked the atmosphere and the nice view over the water. We rested awhile and enjoyed the sun.
And we learned a lot about estuarys, specially the new york harbor estuary.
Thank your for this very interesting earthcache.

After our visit to Liberty Island, Ellis Island and Liberty State Park, we took the regular ferry back to Manhattan. This EarthCache was practically on our way so we stopped by and solved the questions. The owner already gave us a heads up, so thanks for the EarthCache and the fast reply. Greetings from Belgium !
It started to rain when I came up out of the subway on Chambers Street, but I was undeterred! Great views from this park, lots of ferry traffic to the south and barges going by.
Found on our caching-day in Central Park.
Thanks for the earthcache and the interesting informations about it.

What a park and beautiful view of New Jersey. I'm so used to seeing the refineries and fuel/oil storage depots while crossing the bridges back and forth to the city. I'm in downtown today for work. After renewing one of my licenses at NYC Consumers Affairs, I decided to clear caches I've missed or never had the time to visit. Happy April Fool's Day!

Together with IarwainBenAdar I visited this earthcache today. After all the other earthcaches in Liberty State Park today this was another one, where we learned again something. This holiday becomes a real knowledge gaining holiday. I love geocaching.
Thanks a lot to the owner for the quick reaction and greetings from Germany

What a view. I'm over in this area quite often and I've never been here before. I wish I could have stayed longer. TFTC
A chilly day, but bright and sunny, and nice to be by the river, shivering in the sun . . . Thanks for bringing us here.

Found with my wife 'kalvey' while visiting NYC recently. I had to dodge a photo shoot going on all down the walkway but we were able to get the needed information. Thanks for bringing us here!
For our third day in New York we have planned a visit to the 9/11 Memorial monument. We had not reserved any tickets through the internet but we went early and since it was not that crowded now we got tickets for the 10 o'çlock shift. After this impressive experience there was still plenty of time for sightseeing and we walked to this earthcache to enjoy the cool breeze and the splendid view.
We seeked answers to the questions and of course took some pictures,
Thank you very much for bringing us here.

This is my first earthcache. I work right near here, so it's an easy one to visit. I did a lot of researching about estuaries though, and am now an expert. I really enjoyed learning about them, even if my friends haven't enjoyed my spewing facts about it all the time.
Answers in email. If I didn't get it right, I'll definitely go back to the drawing board to get it right!

Answers on their way. Came up this way from FiDi during my lunch hour. Never really stopped to think about these things before but what a great place for a science lesson! Thank you!
Very nice and educational Earth Cache. We had a lovely day walking all the way round the southern tip of Manhattan; all the way from the East river ferry and with these coordinates as out last stop before heading back across the Manhattan and the East River to Brooklyn. We met hordes of tourists and lots of locals (I presume). We sat for a while near gz and watched a few guys fishing, and when one of them caught a nice fish I walked over and had a chat. We might live on different continents, but I know fish and could talk about fishing anywhere in the world Thanks for the lovely experience and of course for the cache!
Been by this spot many times in all three of my kayaks on various occasions. TFTC. We need more caches like this!
This was only my 5th cache of the day but I sat and enjoyed the view after spending the last 6 hours walking (25km) and subway riding all over Manhatten.
I was pleasantly surprised to come across the Irish Hunger memorial on my way to GZ and spent some time exploring it.
Answers have been sent to CO and photos are attached.

Our first full day in New York on holiday, and a mammoth walk from midtown to right down to here, caching on the way. And then more caching before walking back to the hotel.
Anyway, we found the correct spot according to the GPS and stood and admired the view for a while.
A beautiful day with plenty of sunshine made it a joy to be visiting this location.
We did look at the questions to answer while logging all our other caches while still in New York, but realised we would need to sit down and put some serious work into finding the answers.
So now we are finally back home and have found the time to work it out. Answers emailed and permission to log granted.
TaraP133 has her own caching name, so will log soon too.
Attached is a photo of us both at GZ.

Had to get this one on a quick, short walk tonight due to working late. We love to come and walk the park. There is always a lot to see. TFTC email sent.
Beautiful afternoon to be walking around on the Hudson with a nice breeze blowing off the water. Will send the answers shortly!
We were visiting New York for the day with the Three Frogs to see the Statue of Liberty and the 9-11 Memorial and decided to stop by here since it was close. I'll e-mail my answers shortly. TFTC
I am from San Diego. This trip took us to CT, Jersey City & NYC. As I looked at maps ahead of our trip, this earthcache got me thinking about that big body of water. Glad to look at the big picture while in the area, surviving the heat wave. Thanks for the time put into making this so informational.
Doing some virtual and Earthcaches while visiting NYC from CA. Beautiful area! email with answers sent. TFTC!

We had a great week in New York including several caches. I think, this is the only EC we made there- Thanks for it! Answers will be mailed.
I was in NYC with the husband for a meeting and we took a long walk, finding a few caches, including this nice EarthCache. Answers have been sent Thanks.
On our 5day-trip to New York we can't resist to search some of these boxes . *T*F*T*C* says Final

We toured lower manhattan today including visiting battery park city, ground zero, and New York Harbor. Unfortunately my picture at the cache site was so blurry as to be unusable so I'm posting one taken from the harbor looking back at the partially constructed freedom tower. Thanks for the earthcache. Will send email

This was a very interesting earth cache. I knew nothing about estuaries prior to reading the cache page and doing some research. Found that I learned a lot that I did not know previously. It was fascinating to know the differences between the Hudson and the East River. Loved the view here, but today is a chilly and windy day so did not stay too long. This is definitely another favorite. Thanks for all of the work on this one. Loved it!
