I can't believe as a New Yorker, I've never walked the Brooklyn Bridge. Its amazing, relaxing and free!
Where we started: Cobble Hill Brooklyn ( 2nd favorite BK neighborhood). Its filled with beautiful Brownstones, Cafes and Shops. They have one Indy Movie theater and another regular AMC theater. If you don't want to spend money on food; you can just bring a picnic lunch and eat at a local park with other picnic'in locals. Definately, bring a bottle of frozen ice water for your bridge walk later.
For us, we watched movie (thank you Groupon); ate leisurely and then went on our after food coma walk to the Bridge. Thanks to my shutterbug friend for photos.
It's ironic considering this if a functioning bridge with cars, but you really do feel the sea air doing this walk. Its almost a surreal feeling because you walking on this huge NYC bridge suspended over water.
And check out the view, gosh I wished I could afford to live here. Maybe when Michelle Williams and Kerri Russell move; the neighborhood will become affordable again. For now, a walk or even biking trip to Brooklyn Bridge is steller Frugal Girl way to spend a lazy weekend afternoon.
