Cool Event: The Mermaid Parade

This is an awesome excuse to get out to Coney Island. The parade has classic cars, homemade floats and costumes (amazingly creative) and give you a great excuse to head out to Nathan's Hot Dogs, the Cyclones, Astroland, and the beach.

Hardly anyone knows that a secret tunnel runs deep beneath the Atlantic Ocean. In May 2008, more than a century after it was begun, the tunnel has finally been completed. An extraordinary optical device called a
Telectroscope has been installed at both ends which miraculously allows people to see right through the Earth from London to New York and vice versa.
