Hello blog friends. Let's take a virtual tour of Brooklyn Bridge Park.
I thought it would be fun to show you our outing that Mr. JCL and I took last summer.
We took a ferry ride to Brooklyn Bridge Park. We sat inside the boat and enjoyed the sights.
It was a beautiful summer day and we enjoyed looking at the water and the view of New York City.
Look, we can see the Statue of Liberty.
The ferry dropped us off at Brooklyn Bridge Park.
We enjoyed walking along the water and looking at the wonderful views of the city.
Look it's a photo of me!
We are getting closer to the Brooklyn Bridge.
Inside this old building is the Ample Hills Creamery.
We were both starting to get hungry, so we stopped into Shake Shack for lunch. It was so good! Mr. JCL had a chicken sandwich and I had a cheeseburger. The cold brew coffee is a winner.
You can see below the long line to eat at Grimaldi's. It's known to be Brooklyn's best pizza. The long line is one of the reasons why I've never eaten there. |
You can ride a bike around the area on a Citibike. Look, you can see the pretty views of the city.
We took the ferry ride back home and this time we sat at the top part of the boat. It was the perfect day and we enjoyed the boat ride and visiting the park.
When it's safe to travel, Brooklyn Bridge Park is a fun place to visit.

ReplyDeleteSo now I know what you did last summer ;-) hehe. What a lovely post and a picture of you, yay! I got to see a glimpse of the Brooklyn Bridge many moons ago. But your post makes me miss New York. The hamburgers looks so good! Your travel posts me happy! Have a wonderful Thursday Julie.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the blog visit Ping. Going to visit Brooklyn Bridge Park by ferry was so fun! We enjoyed walking around and stopping for lunch! It was the perfect day! :)
DeleteYou have a cute outfit for a day out! I love your photos...takes me somewhere I'll probably never get to visit! I would love to go on a ferry around here some day though. Enjoy your day.
ReplyDeleteI used to have a HUGE travel list. Covid has made me rethink things, and now I only have a few. Brooklyn Bridge is one that is left on my list. Happy to see the views and the recommendations for places to possibly eat while there!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the blog visit Rosey! Yes, because of Covid we have to rethink things for traveling until everything is safe again. I'm glad that the Brooklyn Bridge is on your travel list.
DeleteSuch a nice day, Julie, thanks for taking us along. Virtual travel is as good as it gets these days.

DeleteWhat a fun outing! My daughter and I went to NYC a few years ago, and we really enjoyed walking the Brooklyn bridge and having pizza at Juliana's Pizza. Thanks for linking up with Hello Monday! Tanya - The Other Side of the Road
ReplyDeleteWe had a great time on our day trip to Brooklyn Bridge Park. How awesome that you and your daughter came to NYC a few years ago! Thanks for the blog visit Tanya.
DeleteI lived in Brooklyn most of my life so I enjoyed seeing one of my favorite areas on your blog! We often went to Jane's Carousel on the northern part of the park. It's also a great place to pick up a taxi boat and take a cooling ride along the east River.
ReplyDeleteThanks Pat I am glad you enjoyed looking at the photos of our visit to Brooklyn Bridge Park!
DeleteThat sounds like such a lovely day trip!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the blog visit and yes it was such a nice day trip that we both enjoyed!
DeleteFun!! We live a few hours away, so we like to take sight-seeing trips into the city. I did not know that you can just take a ferry over to the Brooklyn Bridge. I'd never thought to look it up. Now I want to do this!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great day trip to see the Brooklyn Bridge and the Park. I hope you get a chance to visit. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
DeleteSuch a nice outing. It was wonderful when we visited your state. So much to see. Thanks for taking us along. Stay safe Julie.
ReplyDeleteI LOVED visiting NYC and specifically the Brooklyn Bridge. The last time was 5 years ago, so I miss that city that never sleeps! Great photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the blog visit Alena Alice! I am so glad that you enjoyed visiting NYC and the Brooklyn Bridge.
