    I went to the New York Aquarium today. They changed a lot of things. They have a HUGE reef tank. They also have a BTA the size of 3 soft balls, and the polyps, the brightest pink that I ever seen. I could go on and on describing everything, I'm going back during the week just to take pictures and I will post them. If any one is able to make the trip there, go, its worth it. I'm a conservation supporter so I could go for free, and take a guest, so if any one is able to meet up just let me know.

    I grew up in Brooklyn and used to go to the aquarium all the time. Glad to hear its doing well. I have lots of good memories of it and coney island and sheepshead bay area.

    This summer I'm going to try and take my family for a visit to NYC. My kids have never been there and I miss all the great food. I'll have to make it a point to visit the aquarium and Yankee stadium. Go Yanks!

    This is the last year that Coney Island would be open. Half of it will be torn down and hotels will be built and some other things, I don't remember what. The cyclone might be torn down as well. They rebuild the trains station a 5 year project that just finnish. We have a new baseball stadium in Coney Island, the team is called the Cyclones, your kids will enjoy it. Coney Island it starting to look very nice again.

    Thanks, I'm looking forward to it. Too bad about the cyclone, my kids were looking foward to going on what was once the greatest roller coaster in the world.
