May 26, Saturday - Day 29:  After the long trip up to Sandy Hook on Friday we took it easy on Saturday.  We put Ricky-Dink in the water and took a ride into town.  It didn't take long to tour the entire town of Atlantic Highlands.  Later that evening we were eating dinner on the aft deck talking about trying to meet up with our friend Linda, from Houston, who was visiting New York City with her daughter, Ashley,  over the Memorial Day week end, when Jim had a brillant idea!  Why not see if Linda and Ashley want to jump on an early ferry to Atlantic Highlands and then ride with us into New York Harbor??? So, at 8:00 on Saturday night we called Linda to pitch the idea - they loved the idea and just needed to know where to catch the ferry.   Within minutes we found a ferry that left somewhere in Manhattan at 8:00 am and arrived somewhere in Atlantic Hightlands at 9:05.  We weren't sure where the ferry dock was, or if there was a place to take Rickshaw to pick them up - but hey - if the ferry can dock there we should be able to pull in there too - right?  Another adventure - !
