So in the spirit of spring, we had another walking adventure! This one, was across the Brooklyn Bridge!
This was an adventure a long time coming. I’ve been asking around for tips and such to prepare ourselves and here are a few that really made our trip great:
-Take the train to Brooklyn and walk the bridge back into the city, it makes for a much more grand view!
- You can get to the bridge from a couple of train stops in Brooklyn, but take the 2 or 3 to Clark Street for a more charming stroll to the bridge. We took a nice walk down old Henry Street and through a little park before hopping on the bridge. (And I LOVE when I don’t have to transfer trains!)
-Before going home, we took a detour to South Street Seaport! An old renovated shipping dock right next to the bridge, it is now a super touristy location but is really clean with lots of nice shops. I, being a fan of super touristy things, loved it!! It is like New York’s equivalent to San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf- except I couldn’t find sea lions or funnel cakes anywhere.
Here are a few picks of our trip! Such a fun day!
