I thought visiting Ellis Island was one of the most interesting things we saw in NYC - it gave such an insight into US culture. Just loved it.
ReplyDeleteBut as for this ferry - how wonderful a notion. We toyed with buying a barge home while we were living in London. In the end, we were too nervous because we had a 3 year old at the time, but it was a very appealing idea! But a "houseboat" of this ferry size - well that is quite a big proposition. One could have so much fun kitting it out. xx
Zoning laws couldn't possibly apply to living on water!
ReplyDeleteDidn't McKenzie Childs owners have a ferry or something?
Cats. Several own me.

They are such cool people. I bought some of their jewelry for the shop but it's a little too funky for my peeps. It shows that they can decorate any place and it fits.
