She was en route to the Jazz Age Lawn Party, an annual event on Governors Island. Though the theme is everything 1920’s, it is loosely interpreted because none of the attendees was alive then. It was a chance to play dress-up in the summer: short, fringed dresses for the women and rolled-up khakis (?!) and caps for the guys.

If you like boat rides around and between the five boroughs, don’t take the ferry from Pier 6, Brooklyn to Governor’s Island. It takes about five minutes to get from one dock to the other. It’s nice, just over very quickly.
