Atop the Big Apple

On By aurawithwritingIn Photography

New York– A name that gives me goosebumps ever since I was a kid. Visiting New York city was part of my big American dream and I was fortunate to be able to fulfill this within a year of my stay in the U.S. My joy knew no bounds as Manhattan was very much like I’ve been imagining it over the years. The hype wasn’t fake, nor was the vibe. With a limited time of less than a day, which is definitely not enough to relish and roam around in this big city, I could only visit a few tourist destinations. The next time I get to visit New York, I hope and wish to fulfill my desire of gaining a full fledged experience of this fascinating city!

The Empire State Building was one among the few places I got to visit. This world wonder gave a beautiful glimpse of the cityscape, with quite a different view of the city and the buildings. It was amazing how being on top of this skyscraper threw a totally different perspective of the ‘Big Apple’ and the night view couldn’t get any better!

Here are few pictures of a gleaming New York city adorned by a beautiful sunset, taken from the Empire State Building observatory.

    1. Thank you!! 😊 I actually wanted to ask you about it- Are you participating this year? I’m still in a dilemma as I have some commitments and may not be able to write everyday. I don’t have any planned posts either. So as of now, my mind isn’t clear yet 😁

      1. You’re welcome.
        I won’t be taking the challenge. Don’t think I would be able to take out time or even need to.
        You should try and take it, if you aren’t going to be busy. But yes, only if you are going to follow through with the regularity of the challenge in the subsequent months, unlike last year.

      2. Haha, good that you have you’re clear on your priorities. Wish I had that! I want to do it, but afraid I won’t have time and may quit in between. But irrespective of the challenge this year, I won’t vanish this time 😬

      4. Glad you asked, planning to write some for the challenge (if I’m taking), and also otherwise. I peeked few of your blog posts I missed and looks like you’ve done stories yourself! 😊 Will hop over and read soon 😃
