I went back to the room where Todd was getting ready. We walked across the street and at 8:10 we had breakfast at the 810 Deli & Cafe. I split a protein wrap with Todd, and had a Bolthouse Farms (funny, I just realized it was Bolthouse, not Boathouse) strawberry banana smoothie to drink. Our local Kroger sometimes has these on sale 2 for 1, and they are tasty.
Today we had early reservations for the Statue of Liberty, so after breakfast we got on the 1 train at 50th and took it downtown to the South Ferry station. We arrived at the ferry landing at 9am and were able to go immediately through the airport-style security and onto the first boat of the day with no waiting. This was a huge change from April of 2011 when even with advance tickets we had to wait 2 hours to get through security and on to the boat.
