      D2 New York - Brooklyn

      July 6, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 30 °C

      Impressions of New York so far:

      - Brooklyn is rad. With its old school
      Industrial architecture and views of both downtown and uptown Manhattan.
      - It feels just like the movies depict it. It’s beautiful and quirky.
      - It’s expensive - think queen vic night market prices but in US dollars. So a grilled pork panini (delicious!) cost 13 usd.
      - Their public transport system has a lot of character, energy and life. Aka there’s plenty of homeless people singing, selling Oreos and water and speaking to themselves.
      - Customer service (even when tipping isn’t necessary) is excellent. This may be influenced by the tipping culture however.

      TOP 3 Highlights of today:

      1. Brooklyn - wandering the Williamsburg and Dumbo neighbourhoods. Eating at Smorgasburg and getting custom made jewellery...for Anthony
      2. Brooklyn Bridge - walking with the masses across the wooden boardwalk while dodging local hoons on bicycles.
      3. REI - Kate had her first introduction to this US icon. We broke the budget, and it’s only day two...
