This past Sunday we ventured out to Coney Island, somewhere that we had never been to in the past. To say that it was an adventure is an understatement.
Attractions at Coney Island:
- The Cyclone, a wooden roller coaster built in 1926 - completely terrified me, we barely fit in the seats and it felt like we exceeded the weight limit :)
- Ate the original Nathan's hot dogs and cheese fries (both delicious). Although the new rule about NYC chain restaurants posting calorie information does deter me from my love of anything french fried
- Saw the Brooklyn Cyclones play, the NY Mets affiliate team (had more french fries)
- Enjoyed the boardwalk and being near the beach
- People watch, people watch, people watch...
