Coney Island

Here's to my first post on my new layout!!! A bajillion thank yous and hugs to one of my blog besties, Miss Allison of ShyScout!! You're wonderfully talented and so incredibly sweet to match.
Now, on to a couple weekends ago when I took my first trip to the historical Coney Island in Brooklyn, New York. I love super old places, especially when they've got that almost-creepy-circus-y feel to them. I went with my upstairs neighbor slash long enough time friend now that I shouldn't have to keep referring to her as my neighbor, Lissi. It was a spur of the moment trip sparked by my boredom with daytime television. Spontaneity is my middle name. Lissi happened to have free tickets for the New York Aquarium, which is conveniently located on the C.I. boardwalk so we got to park for free, too!!!! My enthusiasm is warranted. Anyone who's ever visited New York knows how much money you can lose in a day, just on parking.

I love this picture of Lissi. I would've let her get one of me but I don't trust anyone holding my cell phone while in the ocean but me 
Souvenir tees. I forgot to take my size label sticker off, oops
It was one of the best girls day trips I've had in a while. We sunbathed for hours, played in the water, ate tons of deep fried food (yes, I had my fourth funnel cake for the summer!), and rode a ride that could give you brain damage (my dumb idea...again). I hope y'all are making the most of these last days of summer as well! 
P.S. Like cute things and free shit? You should enter my giveaway then :)
P.P.S. Sorry if my landscape pics are a bit blurry on your screens; I'm currently playing around with HTML codes (so out of my comf-zone, but I want to learn) in order to get my landscape & portrait pictures to match in width. I'll get it!
