On Sunday Neil wanted to go for a bike ride. We decided to go along a path he’s always been interested in, which runs along the water in Brooklyn. We drove to a spot right by the Verrazano bridge and headed toward Coney Island. Sunday was very hot, but being by the water we had a nice breeze. Much to Lindsay’s delight, our ride took us past an amusement park. We stopped there and ate our picnic lunch and Lindsay went on a few rides. It was practically empty (I guess dads don’t choose to go to amusement parks on father’s day) and the guy running the swing ride kept the ride going and going and going.
One of the things I packed was beef jerky. Don’t know why, but I saw a new kind called Go*ggi at our local cheese shop Stinky, which is a Korean-style bulgoggi flavored beef jerky. I would recommend it as an alternative to the usual teriyaki flavored ones.
The next time we’re going to explore the bike path higher up by the old airstrip Floyd Bennett Field. I hope everyone had a nice father’s day.
