    What a great visit, and I must say, that's one of the BEST vlogs of New York I've seen.
    Hope you continue to have SAFE journeys ❤❤

      Thank you, that's very kind. Maybe because there's never been a vlog done from this angle before so it's more unique to other peoples experiences.

    A great ad for NY. Brilliantly put together. At 10:12, cyclists reckon if we had no cars, there'd be no need for traffic lights, so they cycle through them - even when a pedestrain is on the crossing! At 20:53, you motored under Bridge #6 without even commenting on what it looks like!!! It was the inspiration for the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Bradfield (the engineer) travelled to NY just to see it.

    A good taste of one of the world's great cities. New York has venerable places to visit, tho its present establishment may not be as welcoming. Nice creative work, of necessity, getting the family ashore! Some of the local denizens also employ "creative" means of getting past those subway booths. Glad you found some of New York's famous parks. You obviously had fun, despite the hassles. Hope the next leg will be better!

    Fun Fact (And last comment I leave, I promise! LOL). The Brooklyn Bridge's Architect/Builder was Jos A Roebling. Before the Brooklyn Bridge, he built the Jos A Roebling Suspension Bridge that goes over the Ohio River, connecting Cincinnati Ohio, to Newport Ky. He built the Cincinnati Bridge first and then years later, he used that plan to then build the Brooklyn Bridge in New York (They look almost Identical).
