The Secret Carnival of Magic, You're Invited!

Click on each picture to read the story






Snippets of my fave attractions at The Magic Carnival



Come back and visit my journey after I visited Samuel E. Rainbows Tent, for the full color version, a feast for the eyes!

The story above was inspired by the former glory of Coney Island, its many enchanting fairgrounds, pavillions, eateries, carnivals and shows, the majestic architecture and ocean front, which has been loast to age and decay today. Although one walk down the boardwalk and you can just imagine what is was like then through some monuments and left over ruins, so much history there.

I had attended the Mermaid Parade at Coney Island last year and it was such an amazing time, look back in my older posts from June to see the Coney Island of today, the parade and in color.

Magic and Joy!
Lisa!

P.S. Stay tuned for more of The Magic Circus!

Your blogs are fabulous! Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment at mine. Do you live in the NYC area? I live down near Philadelphia. Your shopping pictures make me want to take a day trip to NYC to some of those cool shops. Thanks again!
