Coney Island 03/15/2009
 

            Well, today we have a few stories and didn't stay in all day. Haha. Ok, today we woke up and drove over to Long Island - we went across the Brooklyn Bridge it was so cool, then we went to Coney Island and walked on the beach and went out on the pier. And its the first time I've been to the beach with a coat on. Well, it was a big beach bend really. But, its only open in the summer. And it was really big in the 50s and 60s. Well, while we were on the pier, we saw a guy pull back a sting ray with a fishing rod. It was so cool. Then we saw him sling him over the side of the pier and just heard a "Plop"! Then we went to Nathans hot dog place...... That was an experience in itself - just making me think about that food makes me wanna...... go on a diet. This is the restaurant where the worlds hot dog eating contest is. The winner of last year ate 66. I couldn't even eat one. It was so gross and it was so crowded..... it was like Grand Central Station crawling all up and down that place! Well, after we tried to eat we drove to Staten Island and crossed the bridge back to Secaucus or home for now. Then I built a house out of cards - its my hobby and my talent now! Then I video called my twin cousins in Chicago and I also saw my other cousin in Russellville. Well then we ate outback and I played on Club Penguin. Haha.

My shout out goes to the Sewells!

John, One time Karl wanted me to watch the hot dog eating contest...yuck! Do you know what they call it when one of the contestants can't quite keep it down?....they say he's had a "reversal of fortune". Never know when you might need to know that! On a different note, we love the game Scattergories. Alex got a big kick out of the webcam. Tell everyone "howdy" from the Harnacks.
