ON THE ROAD TO NEW YORK

More photos from our Winter 2007 roadtrip. These are from the two day trip from our home to Phil's parents home in Floral Park, NY.

Passing through Richmond, VA




A dream finally realized: trailing MJ on the break!


New Jersey from the Outerbridge and crossing the Outerbridge from New Jersey into Staten Island, NY.



Lulu arrives in Staten Island


Stuck in traffic and scenes from the road on I-278 in Staten Island.




The Verrazano-Narrows Bridge (the first photo is of Staten Island from the bridge/the last is of Lulu arriving in Coney Island, Brooklyn).





Coney Island
We were all hungry by the time we crossed the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge into Brooklyn, so we stopped for a hot dog at the world famous, original Nathan's in Coney Island. (Immortilized in the Drifter's song, Under The Boardwalk: "From the park you can hear the sound of the carousel, you can almost taste the hot dogs and french fries they sell, under the boardwalk, down by the sea...") We also stopped to see the world famous Cyclone - one of the few remaining wood rollercoasters in America.
