Sometimes you just have to get away. It's Summer and the heat and humidity are taking their toll and you are looking for a little sanctuary close by where you can just free your mind of the shakles.

There's lots of places in New York where you can Escape from New York. How about bike riding on Governors Island or a free round trip on the Staten Island Ferry with the Summer breeze in your hair. Maybe a walk across the Brooklyn Bridge to the beach at Dumbo with the Manhattan skyline as your backdrop.... you just escaped!!...
