Next we look round exhibitions (held in old colonial houses) about oysters and suffragettes. Apparently the former were a poor mans food back in the day and really abundant. Now they are endangered, but coming back. Read about the Billion Oyster Project here
There is a marine school on the island.
Read about the suffrage movement here
A view from our last bike ride on the island is shown below
After the ferry, we cycle for miles along the Hudson from South Ferry back to the apartment. Above we see J at the end of the ride, smile on the face but tired and thirsty.
