    27:57 carriages have been removed because of the same horse exhaustion issue on the islands (Princes' Islands) around my town of Istanbul and now there are electric shuttles instead of carriages, which are convenient for the residents and tourists on a hilly island. Less horse-shit smell, no more horse persecution and cheaper ⭐️ This is a great Central Park tour, so much interesting information, thank you Tom, you're the best 🙏👏👏👏

Love it, and find that Central Park is one of the most amazing places on earth, because it amazes me that you could find such a place in the middle of New York City. Whoever decided to put such a place in the middle of the city of New York is one of the greatest minds of the modern world. I'll stop at this point before discussing General Sherman (grrrr...) and hold that for another time...

      But, yes, he did tip. Street performers' etiquette I guess. The rest went towards Phil's hot dog.
      People who work or have worked in resturants are usually the best tippers. Mutual brotherhood or it equates to love. Didn't catch what speakeasy 86 meant in Tom/AK's last video.
      Maybe Tom is waiting for x amount of subscribers before he uses Patreon.
