Budweiser in Brooklyn

Today was a long day, we headed over to Brooklyn this morning, and managed to get ourselves well and truly lost!

After much discussion, we ended up calling a cab to get us where we wanted to go which was Juniors Cheese Cake Company.


After much Cheese cake (which was fabulous) we headed over the Brooklyn Bridge to take in the awesome site of the NY skyline.

You can also see the Statue of Liberty from the bridge, which Gavin and Nicky (my cousin's) had never seen.

We then headed into wall street and the financial district for a quick shopping trip. We also took in the Trinity church and the New York Stock Exchange.

George Washington took the oath to become the first president of the United States of America on the steps of a building on wall street, so we took photo of his statue as well.









Nicky and Gavin headed back to Chicago tonight, but we are looking forward to catching up with them when we arrive in Chicago ourselves.

Tomorrow looks like another Jam packed day. Jacqui's actual birthday and therefore party are happening, and we are going to try to get a whole pile of touristy things in too.... having a fab time!
