Walking the Brooklyn Bridge

After not having time to walk this New York symbol last year, it was
at the top of my list of things to do this trip. After an all night
flight from Los Angeles, I arrived at my hotel at 7.15am. Now, whoever
said New York is the town that never sleeps is lying – it's more of a
town that goes to bed very late and sleeps in :) With most stores and
attractions closed at that evil hour, I made my way across to Brooklyn
and walked the famous Brooklyn Bridge (which was built before the
invention of the car, originally for pedestrians and horse and karts).
It wasn't as great as walking the Golden Gate in San Francisco, but it
was definitely a worthwhile experience! The views of lower Manhattan
are spectacular.
