Today we walked across the Brooklyn Bridge from Manhattan to Brooklyn. We caught the subway to Manhattan and then ventured across -a glorious sunny day. This is a busy bridge - walkers and cyclists either exercising or just checking out the views like us.
It only took about 25 minutes and that included stopping to take photos. Once on the other side we just walked around the beautiful old streets admiring the buildings and apartments (see photos). Lots of nannies with their charges out walking or at the park.
We had lunch in a lovely restaurant where the men all sounded like Robert de Niro which was pretty cool.
After walking around the Cobble Hill area we found the subway and caught a train back to Manhattan and then caught the free ferry to Staten Island. Quite a lovely ride and lots of photos of the Statue of Liberty. We then caught the subway back to our hotel, had dinner in a nice Italian place next door and then went to a concert at Radio City Hall - Gotye supported by Missy Higgins. Great show and what a lovely venue!
