One day in Brooklyn


[scroll down to see English, bottom to see photos]


Brooklyn Bridge, view from Brooklyn Bridge Park

一天步行遊走布祿崙 (由曼哈頓 經布祿崙橋 步行 至 布祿崙植物園).
約 6.4里 (10.3公里), 消耗約 600大卡, 步行了6小時,  用了共 31美元。


布祿崙吃的很多, 一個人能吃的又實在太少, 有名的比薩 (意大利薄餅)就吃不消了, 選了喜歡的乳酪(芝士)蛋糕 。

當天也穿了透氣短筒登山鞋,棉襪, 短 tee, 卡其褲。

經再三考慮, 選了在上午步行 布祿崙橋, 相信會有漂亮的陽光 照耀布祿崙橋 及 曼哈頓的高樓。

當天的中午有攝氏30以上, 先後喝了四杯冷飲,  是避免中暑的好方法, 而檸檬特飲是最消暑可口的。

出發時間約在上午
9:30am 抵 Staten Island Terminal (簡稱南碼頭),  
10:30am  City Hall , 布祿崙橋頭
11:30am 抵 Brooklyn Bridge Park 
12:30pm  Brooklyn Bridge Park Pier 5
1:00pm  Borough Hall
2:00pm  Junior's Restaurant
3:30pm  Atlantic Terminal
4:00pm  Grand Army Plaza
4:30pm  Brooklyn Botanic Garden


Walk about 6.4 miles (10.3km) in 6 hours.
Burn about 600 calories.
Spend about USD 30 on one meal and 3 drinks.

There are lot of variety and choices when comes to eat at Brooklyn. However, that is usually too big for one person. I chose Junior's cheesecake over Grimaldi pizza.

I wear breathable upper low-cut hiking shoes, cotton socks, and dress light with short sleeve tee, khaki pants,

After reconsideration, I started the walk in the morning, and believed that beautiful sunlight on the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan high rise for better photo.

It was very hot, above 30 celsius. I had four cold drinks in the afternoon, can't believe it. It is one way to prevent yourself from Heat Stroke.
