A few Saturdays ago we went to Coney Island for the New York Aquarium 23rd annual Coney Island Sand Sculpting Contest. Hosted by Astella Development Corp. and the Alliance for Coney Island. It was the prefect Summer Day and we had fun cruising the boardwalk and looking at the sand sculpting contest.
