http://uwepetercom.blogspot.com/2014/06/once-again-bridges-part-3.html

Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridge | Manhattan | Brooklyn | New York City | USA | 2014-06-15
Our last trip during 1 week "New York" leads us again to the both bridges between Manhattan and Brooklyn. The difference between today and 3 days ago, where we did the same trip, was the weather. Blue sky and sunny moods ... a perfect final for this fantastic week in NYC.

http://uwepetercom.blogspot.com/2014/06/the-german-bridges-part-2.html

Manhattan Bridge and Brooklyn Bridge | New York City | USA | 2014-06-12
The so-called german bridges Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan Bridge and Williamsburg Bridge ("B-M-W") connect the Manhattan Island with Brooklyn. A nice trip to walk is that you start in Chinatown at the south side pedestrian way of the Manhattan Bridge (with spectacular views to the Brooklyn Bridge) heading to Brookyln and take the wooden pedestrian trail of the Brooklyn Bridge to come back to Manhattan.
