Seven hours later, the three arrived at the ferry station in Paulus Hook in a community on the Hudson River waterfront in Jersey City, New Jersey. It is located one mile from Manhattan, New York.
The three walked out of the dock where they waited for the ferry that would get them across the Hudson River.
Amelia looked up and saw the darkened clouds and the flash of lightning streaking and arcing across the sky.
"I don't like the look of that cloud," Amelia said.
"Let's just hope that the ferry will arrive within fifteen minutes, otherwise there will be a huge chance of our schedule being delayed," Jonathan said.
"You are right," Poul agreed.
Four men approached Poul from behind. "Si, the luggage and the wooden crate are here, please check if there is something missing."
