Markus’ plan for Saturday was to check out the Brooklyn and so he left his hotel after another early morning run in Central Park and breakfast and boarded a subway towards Coney Island. He exited close to Prospect Park, watched training sessions for junior football and soccer teams – interesting was that a large number of parents was there watching their offspring during practice and it seemed almost like a family picnic with whole families present – and he then made his way through the park towards the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. The Botanic Garden was a real refuge from the noise and heat of the city with all the trees and plants and so Markus took his time, rested underneath cherry trees and enjoyed the time.
An oasis of fresh air and nice smells in the heart of Brooklyn
After leaving the park Markus passed by and on the Brooklyn Museum and moved on towards Manhattan and even though he was planning to walk less today he ended up crossing Brooklyn Bridge per pedes again and basically walked a similar route than the day before with the only difference that he moved north, not south. A short stop in the hotel and a shower refreshed him again and gave him energy for a trip to the southern tip of Central Park where he enjoyed the last sunrays of the day.
Jakob, Kerstin & Markus
