New York

My trip has now brought me to New York City, the city that never sleeps!

#76 Go to the top of the Rockefeller Centre

The Empire State Building is one of the most famous buildings in New York and it has appeared in many movies such as King Kong and Sleepless in Seattle
While I was in New York however I decided to climb the Rockefeller centre as I believe it is better to climb as you get a view of the Empire State Building and a perfect view of Central Park.


#81 Stand in the middle of Times Square

Times square is MENTAL!!!! There are people everywhere all the time.

Say that though, I had the best time wondering around looking at all the crazy things happening. Being pulled over for free tickets to comedy clubs, night clubs and tv shows was good fun. I didn't manage to get anything that I was interested in, but there you go!.



#82 Walk across the Brooklyn Bridge

Coming into Manhattan from Brooklyn gives you a great view of the Manhattan skyline but to be honest the Brooklyn Bridge is nothing special to me.
What do you think about the Brooklyn Bridge?







#83 Visit Central Park

Central Park is one of the most famous parks in the world and it was 100% man made. Most New Yorkers go there to escape the crazy fast paced atmosphere of the city after a long days work.
My favorite parts of Central Park where Strawberry Fields and the SE Pond.





#84 Visit Ground Zero

I actually visited Ground Zero on the day that Osama Bin Laden was killed. It was an historic day and I’m pleased to say that I was there.
They have started to build the Freedom Tower that will be a tribute to the 9/11 victims and families and will also be the tallest building in New York.




 #167 be an extra in a film

While i was in New York I happened to bump into the set of Men in Black 3! I wasn’t an extra but I think meeting Will Smith was worth a mention.







Overall I had the best two weeks in New York that anyone could ask for. Especially meeting Will Smith was the highlight of my time there, as I'm sure it would have been for many people.
