    How do you defend one of the largest ports in the world? Some information boards provide the answers based on the example of New York. This fortress, which was originally built by the British, also belonged to the defense system. But go and read the story for yourself!

      When I arrived at Fort Wadsworth (traveling north up the east side of Staten Island) I was surprised to see how huge Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge looked. It looks unreal. To add to the affect semi-trucks passing across the bridge vibrated as they blasted hip-hop music which echoed from up high. As you ride slightly past the bridge you can look down at Battery Weed, a four-tiered early 19th century military complex on the shore of New York Harbor. In the distance you can see Brooklyn. I have recently learned that they have recently introduced camping in this area during select times of the year. I'm sure it's very tame, but I would love to try it.
