Its worthy of a comeback: New York -Fun and easy things to do - Brooklyn bridge walk

Walking on a bridge doesn't seem so fun, well that's what I thought until I crossed one of the oldest suspension bridge in America.  The view along the Brooklyn bridge is scenic that it made the walk so relaxing that you wont even noticed that you have crossed the entire length of about 1.8 miles.  This bridge also has a biking lane so if you wish to bike than to walk, then you may do so....(Another nearby place to visit is the Battery park, in where after crossing the bridge , you get some refreshments while enjoying the river view along the park)

Its worthy of a comeback: New York -Fun , FREE and easy things to do - Coney Island


Just a subway away from midtown Manhattan is New York's Coney Island beach and boardwalk amusement park. Subway N and R lines can bring you straight to this getaway theme park for only about 45 mins. The subway would cost you only $2.75 per ride ( one way ) and what's even better is that Coney Island doesn't have an entrance fee like what most theme parks do. You only pay per ride or per game. 
If your not a fan of roller coaster or other amusement park rides, you can just stroll along the board walk or enjoy walking on the sand on a lazy afternoon!


Do not forget to grab a snack at Nathan's. They say they have the best hotdogs in the island and lobster salad. This famous food shack won't break your budget too. Meals with fries and drink will cost only about $5-$10.
