So my brother, friends Chrissy, Kenny and I went to Coney Island this past Wednesday to just walk around. So I took some pictures. I hope you enjoy!

PUPPY! THey actually used to have these guys chained up under the Jumbo Jet's lift, and they would chase the trains and bark at you! It was very amusing to watch.
