We loved every minute of our stay in NY, and the apartment in Brooklyn was perfect. Danica and her family made us feel very welcome, and were helpful: in fact, all the neighbours, locals are warm and friendly.

Do check out the eating places on Flatbush, as there are some top jerk chicken/roti/pizza and Chinese spots. The area is a safe and vibrant neighborhood. I took the night train back at 2am, and felt at ease.

Take a walk/subway to Fulton Street and check out the clothes/trainers shops.

We used the Subway almost everyday as Manhatten is a short hop away. Public transport is as cheap as chips! As are the yellow cabs.

We did loads more in the other Boroughs and Upstate NY too. Already planning our next visit.
