This was our last day in New York City and, as hard as it is to believe, I had no agenda. We had done everything we had planned to do while we had been there, and so on our last day Scott thought it would be fun to take the subway to Coney Island. We were scheduled on an afternoon Amtrak train back to Philly, so we checked out of our hotel with our backpacks and hit the subway.

Our subway ride to Coney Island took quite a while. At one point we were the only ones on the train... which was a bit creepy as far as I was concerned. But the girls thought it was pretty cool and decided to take advantage of it by running up and down the aisle!
We made it to Coney Island and decided we'd eat lunch at Nathan's Hotdogs. I had a chili dog, which was so good, but it was so messy that I had to eat it with a fork.

We strolled around Coney Island for a bit before we had to head back to the city to catch the train back to Philly.

Can you spot Scott, Ashlee & Emilee?
It's like "Where's Waldo?" |

Can you find them?
Look for the red backpack! |
We said goodbye to New York City and headed back to Philly. Once we got there, we decided we'd drive as far as we could toward Richmond, Virginia before staying the night. Scott had a business trip and had planned to fly out of Richmond, and then the girls and I would head home from there.

| Goodbye New York City! |
Our summer 2012 road trip was amazing, and we feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to travel to the places we did over these past 8 days. Don't know where we'll end up next year, but I can't wait to find out!
