Coney Island.

I hadn't been to this place since I was 10 years old. All I could remember was taking a empty Q train all the way down. My cousin and I ran up and down the train like crazy - pretending we were surfing - seeing who could stay still once the train stopped. Just acting a mess as my aunt looked at us like we were little animals (I mean...If the shoe fits). But it was so much fun.

I remember going to the aquarium and touching a sting ray for the first time! Next was the boardwalk - and the world famous Nathan's! They have the best 'dirty' hot dogs, truly a-mazing! The best part of the trip had to be the Cyclone. The best wooden roller coaster ever, and they had this deal where you bought 1 ticket and could ride it 5 times! And believe me, we rode it all 5 times.

So when I went a couple weekends ago, all I could remember were the memories from when I was a kid. Everything seemed so much bigger and more exciting then - makes me wonder...Do I really have to grow up? Anyways, my friends and I braved the Cyclone once again - and it was just as good as I remembered! Only rode it twice this time, because I had a massive headache from the ride - not quite built like I used to! And we couldn't leave without hitting up the World Famous Nathan's. A perfect way to end a great trip.
