We set out today to go to Floyd Bennett Field, the abandoned airport-turned-parkland in Brooklyn. Turns out Sat not Sun is the day to do this - they have a hangar full of old airplanes and a visitor center, both open only Saturday. Not a bust though. To paraphrase Jason, it was one of those outings where we think we're in uncharted territory, but of course nothing in Brooklyn is uncharted territory. We stumbled upon girls' gymnastics in a big airplane hangar, and model car racing somewhere outdoors. Heard it first rather than saw, as it sounds like killer robot bees from Africa flying by. (Here is someone else's video that looks/sounds basically the same.)
Then we decided to go over the bridge into Rockaway to walk on the beach at Fort Tilden. It was gorgeous. Just a few fisherman and a few other people running their children and/or dogs. Sparkling day. Here is Rosie taking a pretend picture of us:
And us sitting on "the square" as Rosie called it.
