Highlights of New York - Part C
Nimue

A trip with Pepe and Bear off
Beez Neez on the NY subway to the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens, where we walked
around part of the beautifully maintained 52 acre garden and marvelled at many
of the 12,000 species of plants from around the world. This was also a
good opportunity to try out my new camera, which I had recently purchased in
B&H in New York and thanks Pepe for all the gratefully received
guidance. Anyway, here are some of my
favourites. The Empire State
Building is one of the most popular tourist sites, but as we had been up to the
top back in the 1990’s, we took the ride up to the 850ft viewing deck on the
Rockefeller Centre (also known as ‘Top of the Rock’ Observation Centre). Great
views!

around the American Museum of Natural History and glimpsing at only a few of the
30 million artefacts!
