It was unseasonably warm - in the 80's in October so we decided to go to the beach.

You can get to Coney Island on the subway - so we did, though we were the only ones in the subway car for the last six stops. This is the Wonder Wheel...

t
he Wonder Wheel in the distance...

the Parachute Drop and three Russian bathing belles.

A dear old thing set to sit out in the sun

a not very crowded boardwalk

our restaurant of choice (not recommended)

a shop even I wasn't tempted by

and the wobbly- inducing awning over Nathans.
