Laura, Ryan and I ventured to Coney Island a few days back. Man, what a trippy place. Crazy history and…it’s just weird. I’d love to go back there at night or during the famous hot dog eating contest. SUCH A STRANGE PLACE!
Here’s our first reaction to Coney Island:
Lola Staar’s (abandoned) Dreamland Roller rink:
Creepy doll window display we found in little Russia, which happens to be right next to the abandoned fair:
Shoot the freak, live human target:
Clown water? Also, please note the spelling of “raceing”
Park benches…sans the bench part…
Yup. That’s Coney Island.
Trippy.

I wish I had gone with you. Number one lesson learned from New York. Have fun and ignore work, you can always wing it in the end but you can’t get back missed opportunity. Somehow I don’t think that’s what I was supposed to get out of the trip.

Totally agree with you. I spent a few hours on the airplane furiously scribbling my thoughts on this exact feeling.
