Yesterday(Thursday), I took the A train to its last stop at Rockaway Park/116 st in Queens.

Looking back to The Far Rockaways.

Closer view.

There were loads of these fuckers washed up on the beach.

The water is getting warmer, warm enough to swim, was here a few weeks back, it was about 7c in, this time, about 17c Was awesome to go swimming in the ocean.

Some local gulls.

And back to Manhattan, stopped off in Chinatown as the sun was setting for some greasy dumplings.
Oh, that scenery looks soooooo familiar - I grew up with it, baby!
