our first stop was the Brooklyn Bridge.
My little brother Cooper's dream was to walk the length of the bridge.
so we did.
all the while "Encyclopedia Cooper" gave us all the facts of who was involved,
how long it took, equipment, etc. etc. etc.
we loved it. he was our own personal tour guide.
after that walk, we deserved a little treat.
so we stopped by Pretty Little Cupcakes and had ourselves just that:
a pretty little cupcake.
then we walked down by the pier, enjoyed the quaint little shops, deep dish pizza,
and the freezing cold breeze from the ocean.
it was a very successful first day, but of course that's not all we did.
we did make our way back to Times Square but that's for another post....
