Brooklyn Visit August 2022 - "IF YOU LOVE ME DO IT EVERY DAY" or "NEW YORK EDGE"

-

Our approach to JFK was the most convoluted I had ever experienced. I was on the right side of the plane. In previous approaches that side did not provide a view of Manhattan. But this time, before we went out over the Atlantic Ocean...

...I had a NYC view...

...at sunset.

All these airplane window views were taken with my iPhone 12 pro.

JFK was so congested that after a 30 minute approach we finally landed, and...

...sat on the tarmac for another 30 minutes watching planes land &...

...take off.

Soon, we were back in Prospect Hts.

...folks across the street.

A lot going on here.
