Leaf Change - Day 2 - Walking and Walking and Walking NYC

Sunday treated us to bright clear weather for our planned walking day around the city.  We took off from the hotel and walked a mile down to a beautiful raised walking path in Manhattan known as the High Line.  It's a mile and a half path so once we made it all the way down and back meant we'd done 5 miles before lunch.


The High Line is built on an old raised railroad track which was active up until the 40's.  In 2009 they opened it up as a walking path.








We took the subway out to Brooklyn and a park our niece had recommended to us known as Prospect Park. On the walk over there we passed by the new Barclays Center.



We were lucky enough to hit up a food festival at the park known as Smorgasburg.  Tina had a lamb burger while I had a duck sandwhich.



After lunch we walked a trail around the lake to work off a few calories.





Overall it was a 12 mile day.  Until the next post ...


... keep on smiling!
