nyc days are the best days.

coney island ☀ ☀

a sunny july 4th in coney island! i went on the wonder wheel, ate coney cones and smiled til’ my cheeks hurt. there is something perfectly nostalgic about coney island, as if it was frozen in time. the pictures i took from the ferris wheel almost look like they could have been taken 40 years ago (maybe if they were a little sepia toned 😉…
