Since our first outing was so successful (In other words, nobody got hurt or arrested, and we had a great time), another one is in order.
In the last thread we had discussed Coney Island. We could tie that in with Brighton Beach and the Aquarium there as well. I for one would like to see the place before the last of what's left of it from the glory days of 50-100 years ago either falls down or is bulldozed in redevelopment. And who among us can resist seeing the site of the final scene from "The Warriors". So let's come out and play.
If we do this it might be better before Memorial Day. So, how does it sound?
Hmmmm.... I'm not sure my car is up for a trip to northern Jersey (I don't drive IN NYC), but a train ticket will be out of the question until I get my Canon paid off.

Why not? Drive right to Brookyn just don't look for parking on Coney Island on sunny summer day.
Nik, I just can't drive in NYC. I've tried. Besides, my Virginia plates would be like hanging a sign on my car that said, "Hit me, please!"
I wouldn't worry too much...here's some reasons:
1. Coney Island ain't NYC...it's right off the Belt, no crazy street driving cabbie freak outs.
2. My family has ALWAYS gotten our registration out of state, mainly in Virginia, Tennessee, and Colorado (where we have willing family members). None of us have ever had problems.
3. Park closer to Brighton Beach, which is safer, easier, and less chaotic. It's also off the Belt too :)
As for me, please add me to the list as a tentative...this semester is pretty rough, but I luvs me some Coney Island......
