The Brooklyn Bridge

Today I took a train downtown and walked across the Brooklyn Bridge. It was a long walk, but not as long as everyone warned me it was. There was an amazing view the whole way across.

Starting the walk:



About half-way across:

(A view of Manhattan)

Almost there:

(Same view zoomed in...
Chrysler building and the Empire State building in one shot!)

Welcome to Brooklyn!:

My motivation for walking across the bridge:
Claims to be the oldest and best Brooklyn pizza shop. Hence the line that was forever long just to get a table. Hence the reason why I had soup for lunch at the cafe around the corner instead :)
