1-1-11...The cookie and The Brooklyn Bridge

mmmm....I got a cookie before I left the Roasting Plant...mmmm, YUMMY.  The chocolate chip cookie was delicious.  Warm, soft, and gooey in the middle.  After I finished the cookie my hands were covered in chocolate gooeyness.  I had to dip my hands in the snow and wash them clean.

After The Roasting Plant I wandered back to the apt with the plan of figuring out how to get down to the Brooklyn Bridge.  I got home, checked a few maps and grabbed my bag.  I made my way over to the R train at Prince and Broadway.  I took that just 2 stops down to City Hall.  After I got off the train I managed to find the walkway to the Brooklyn Bridge and proceeded to walk across.  To set the mood I plugged into my music and selected the Sex and the City soundtrack.  I thought it was kind of appropriate.  As I walked along with the other tourist and locals I snapped a few pics.
Here are a few...






At one point on the bridge I could see the Statue of Liberty to one side and the Empire State building to the other.  :-)

It was a great first walk over the bridge.

After walking over to Brooklyn and back I decided to bypass the subway and just walk back to the apt.  I headed up Broadway and the issue I came across was....I like the street I am walking up but what about that one in the other direction?  Should I walk up that?  Should I stay on the street I am on?  They all can be so interesting and mysterious.  Such a big city with tons of nooks and crannies.
