I was wondering how kids trick-or-treat in New York City. Do they walk from building to building and knock on every apartment’s door? Can’t be… Well, they don’t. Instead, they trick-or-treat all restaurants, salons and shops in the area. That’s much more fun!

halloween_on_69th_streetThe W 69th street association did a great job organizing everything. The official party was scheduled to start @5pm, but around 3 pm the street was already packed.

A quick sneak peek from the Halloween party on W 69th street of Manhattan. Twenty thousand people are going to visit the street (according to police). The street is closed for traffic between Park and Broadway.  There are so many cute kids outside; unbelievable costumes and decorations! Awesome bonus – it is 72 ºF today! I will post more photos from the event tomorrow.halloween_witches

The Washington Monument is the most famous structure and attraction in Washington, D.C. It was built to commemorate the first U.S. president George Washington. It is 555’ 5 1/8” tall, and was the tallest construction in the world until the Eiffel Tower was completed in Paris, France in 1889.
