I haven't been to Coney Island in years! Are the amusements Still there? I thought they were going to get rid of them? I used to love the water fountain that looked like a lion that you drank out of its mouth.

They made these new rides in this new place called Luna Park. I hope they still have the rides from Astroland, I will be so angry if they got rid of the bumper cars.

 

Coney Island is old, and it shows. But it's a classic place that brings so many memories, and creates new ones. They have the people that'll rip you off, like the woman with a snake for a body. It was just some snake charmer.

 

But the rides and the carnival games bring you back. I remember almost coughing up my spleen on the Cyclone, or smashing into people on the bumper cars. The fireworks are cool. And Keyspan Park is there, which is home of the Brooklyn Cyclones, which is a minor league team for THE METS, MY FAVORITE BASEBALL TEAM. The beach is a little dirty, but is still habitable, and the aquarium is great.

 

You should visit sometime, if they didn't tear EVERYTHING down for Luna Park. I haven't been there for a year, so I haven't seen Luna Park.

And of course you need to mention the Nathan's Hotdogs. With they're amazing coney island mustard (which we have in the fridge :laughingsmiley: ) and delicious hot dogs *drools*

Nathan's hot dogs. :D I definetly watched their annual hot dog eating contest a few days ago. On ESPN. :D It was gross/hilarious. This winner ate...64 or something like that in 10 minutes. Crazyyy.

That's right. We have the first ever Nathan's Hot Dog resteraunt. They're awesome!

Lulz, i'm sorry Spritzie. Dx

 

 

-Would say that he's having pizza soon but dosen't wanna mke Spritzie hungrier-

 

Late, as usual, I know. But I had to leave last night because of all the food talk. After dinner, I couldn't eat again, because I had to fast for getting blood work done today. And I was hungry. :( HMPH! But now it's done and I can eat.

 

Those pictures of snow on the beach were gorgeous!

Haha, thanks. If only it was closer to that temperature right now. Bah its too hot. And I'm supposed to clean out the fridge which smells but I can't bring myself to do it.

Man, seeing those pictures makes me wanna go to the beach sooooo badly :( but I cant

I love the beach. I can go anytime I want b)

I love beaches, but I'd much rather walk along them, then get in the ocean. Like in Long Beach, CA, I was totally wishing I had my roller blades for the walkway that paralleled the beach. That would have been awesome. Every time my dad and I passed someone on roller blades, I told him I wanted to go roller blading. He finally told me to knock someone over and take them. :laughingsmiley:

haha

ah, Long Beach, a wonderful place, too bad it's like an hour and a half away from here

It's a few hours by plane, from me. But I got to spend 2 days there before my cruise, and 1 day after. So it was awesome. And we stayed on the Queen Mary, which made it even better.

I live in the middle of the US. No beaches near enough for me :(

Awww poor Doc! The beach I go to is pretty nice because there arent many people at Margate. My friend also knows someone who has a private beach. b)

A private beach? They have those? Didnt know that :P

I live near the Pacific Ocean...but I never go. Too cold. And I dunno. I'm not NOT a beach person, but I like pools. :D Good enough for me.

I love the beacth is so much fun lay on the beacth and have fun and have a bbq and play games on the beacth so manny things to do will go to bahamas or jamaka soon Iam so excited

I live too far away from the ocena. Dx

 

-Is in the upper part of AZ-

Ryan, I'm going to find you and bring you here so you can be near the ocean for a while

I am less than 10 minutes away from the ocean :D

Tyler, you are so lucky! xD

 

Although i'd prefer heat to earthquakes...

you can't even feel the earthquakes

or you can... but barely

you would probably complain about the cold even though it's warm

Dude, how do you stand that? I spent the night on a house boat with my cousin over there once and I couldn't get warm no matter how many blankets I wrapped myself in. My cousin laughed. xD

we have pretty cold (late 50s-early 60s) nights, when yours are probably in like the 80s :P

Hey, we got down to the 40s like... twice! And were down in the 60s alot.

oh well, then I don't get why you were so cold
