Fire Island

My first week in New York, I had the chance to go to Fire Island.  Fire Island is one of the outer barrier island adjacent to the south shore of Long Island, New York.  It is approximately 50 km long and varies between 160 and 400 meter broad.


 It was summer 2010 when I went, we drove along the Robert Moses causeway on its western end and by William Floyd Parkway to the ferries, which take you to the island.  Car's aren't allowed on Fire Island, if you do want a car during winter, one needs to get a permit.  

 
Its quiet lovely riding bikes everywhere and walking.  You feel amazing and well rested not having any form of city buzz in the air.  Some movie were shot in Fire Island, at the end of What Happens in Vegas was shot near the light house in Fire Island.


 I must admit is way heavenly and amazing for my jet lag.  The best part of it all was I got to spend time with my Juliet.  Sadly my Liza had to do her permit drivers test that weekend.

I was so fortunate that I had the chance to go to this wonderful little island.
