This is Colin’s very first trip to the Big Apple and Colin’s first time he met his cousins: Rio and Rintaro.

In fact, I haven’t seen Rio since she was just 4, so needless to say, I was quite delighted.
For this summer, this was my second trip to NYC — having visited several weeks prior.  Was really glad that Kim, Yute and Rio travelled to NYC for work.
While visiting, we toured all over this great city and really enjoyed watching the Sailors in their Dress Whites all over Times Square during Fleet Week.
For this visit, going to Coney Island was a wonderful decision and better than watching the NY Mets play their final season in their ballpark.

It was a lovely summer day, and Coney Island was a wonderful American Experience.  One of our favorite rides was the B&B Carousel that offered a stupendous view of the Atlantic Ocean and the entire island.

There are endless activities here from Circus Sideshows and Burlesque to the iconic Cyclone roller coaster ride. But most people who exodus from the hustle and grind prefer the calm, lazy days of summer.

The broadwalk was fun to stroll on seeing people from all walks of life enjoying the sights and sounds of this landmark, historical resort that would soon be closed to redevelopment in the near future. Glad that we’re visiting now cuz it may not be open again for several years.

After a long day, wonderful Korean food in Manhattan — NYC has so much to offer in terms of diversity of cuisine.
