Summer in the City - Coney Island, New York

Labor Day weekend marks the end of summer for America.  How time flies when you are having fun!  It feels like just yesterday when I was at Coney Island kicking off the summer on Memorial day.  A 50 minute subway trip to the end of the line in Brooklyn deposits you on one of the most famous boardwalks of them all.  This 2010 Memorial Day weekend the weather enticed thousands of colorful sunbathers from their small NYC apartments to the beach; you can hardly find a free space to place your towel!
