Finished my travels in New York which is like entering a different country.

The city is mad and chaotic, but lovable all the same. It has an energy that you don't find anywhere else. I think it's because Manhattan is a island, there is nowhere for the energy to escape to so it all pushes up.

Walked down to Brooklyn, crossing the famous bridge for a wonderful view of the end of the island. The topped off the new World Trade Center building today, it is now officially the highest building in the country at 1778 feet.

Summer is finally coming and it was a beautiful day in Central Park today. Many people of many bizarre shapes and sizes, out enjoying the sunshine. I walked my feet off.
