Bridge of Brooklyn

For a coupl'a times now, we've always had to make the awful final-minute decision of dropping of planned items on the itinerary. It is heartbreaking, and I always get that feeling of "now how am I going to tell people I've been to New York, if I haven't seen ________?" Clearly, all the nooks, crannies and crowd favourites of the city can't be seen in a span of 5 days of less. 

I don't know why I had my plans made for visiting the Brooklyn Bridge from the Brooklyn side - it could be because it is the Brooklyn Bridge after all, but we had wanted to get up the bridge while at the Brooklyn Bridge Park - but while navigating from Coney Island to the heart of Manhattan, we found it possible to visit the bridge after all, just from its opposite end.
