A Winter Day at the Beach

Sun shining. Blue skies. Zero degrees. Freezing winds.. are you thinking what I'm thinking? :) Day at The Beach! Let's go to Coney Island.
The subway ride there is scenic.

You are greeted by the most beautiful wall mural.

Coney Island is Beautiful in the Snow

Some people were dancing and having a picnic with balloons under the "Palm Tree"


"Chicks" were promenading on the Boardwalk! And that spooky oooOOOooo sound is the closed amusement park's metal howl when nothing but the wind is blowing through it.


Creatures were entertaining at the Aquarium.


Some seemed to be at a party...


A wonderful time was had by all.

Our First Snow

All is well but quite a night, a fire broke out at our building. I posted all my pictures and video on this blog LES NYC Window- which I meant to post about here as a new photo blog for my NYC pix. Sorry the first post is about a fire but again, we were told no one was hurt and the fire dept here was truly fast and amazing.

A nice thing about today and tonight is that it's our first snow here in the new place! It's beautiful! :)
The first flurries earlier in the eve:
