For those of you who like to get up early, this is the best time to walk from Manhattan side to the Brooklyn side of New York City. There are still many joggers at that time but it is a little less conjested and chaotic than during the middle of rush hour. This bridge walk stretches 1.3 miles and provides great spots to either take in the Manhattan skyline or to take a memorable picture. Make sure that you wear proper walking shoes and stay in the lane that is marked "Pedestrians". I don't think that you want to take on NYC's taxi drivers head on. They are on a mission and there is a lack of patience for anything that might get in their way. It can get windy on the bridge so make sure that you dress for the weather. Last but not least, go to the washroom before you head out as there are no port a potties on the bridge.
