For our anniversary trip this year we decided to go onto the Big Apple. We spent almost a week riding trains and walking through bridges witnessing what life has to offer there.

It was a sensory overload, and we couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of this iconic square.
Exploring Manhattan’s Landmarks
Another day was dedicated to exploring Manhattan, home to some of New York City’s most famous landmarks.

Next on our list was Central Park, a sprawling oasis amidst the concrete jungle.
