Fourth of July weekend I was really lazy. I'd contemplated going to Boston, then I planned on going to DC, and then ended up just sticking around the city. It was kind of nice.
On the night of the 4th Curtis and I headed down to the Seaport and walked around a bit, got some dinner, tried to get close to the fireworks show, but couldn't get past the barricades so we decided to head to Brooklyn.
Watching the fireworks with the city as the backdrop was gorgeous.
My favorite part of the night, however, was walking back to Manhattan. The lines to get in the subway were ridiculously long, and the entrance to the bridge was closed off. We walked for a bit and then hopped a fence and walked the bridge anyway. It was PERFECT. Walking the Brooklyn Bridge is one of my favorite things to do, but it's always so crowded. For almost the whole walk, however, we had the whole bridge to ourselves. It was amazing. Just us, the Hudson River, and the view of our city.
When we got back to Manhattan we saw this huge line of people, just waiting to get underground to get into a subway. Ridiculous. The traffic was also horrendous, and we were so glad we could just walk everywhere.
