Even though I tried to focus on Brooklyn during this visit, I could not resist spending some time in Manhattan as well. During my time there, I revisited some sights, where I have already been before (e.g. Central Park or my favourite museum, the AMNH), but I have also managed to include some "firsts" into my itinerary.

For example, I rode the Staten Island Ferry for the first time at night, enjoying the view of the lights of Downtown from there.

Moreover, I visited the observatory atop the Rockefeller Center where I enjoyed the view of the Empire State Building and Central Park.
