1. ... so the adventure begins ...

Greetings from New York City - the start of my travels ... and the best place to begin my travel blog on this hot summer's day is from half way across that great icon of NYC - the Brooklyn Bridge - spanning the East River - connecting the boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn - and hanging majestically there in constant use for the past 130 years ...

 

 ... my first encounter with the NYC crowds ...

 

and my first glimpse of Lady Liberty ... away in the distance ...

 

I hope you'll join me on this exciting journey of discovery ... To keep up with me, simply enter your email address in the box on the top right hand corner of this page ( Follow by Email ), and you'll hear from me regularly as I explore the world ...
