From Philly, up the Jersey turnpike, off at Exit 13 for the Goethals bridge, Staten Island Expy to Verrazano Bridge, Belt parkway two exits to exit 6 for Coney Island. I parked at 20th St for eight bucks. If you do it by train from Philly then it's Amtrak (very expensive!) to Penn Station, then busses/subways to Coney Island. Jim Shulman Bryn Mawr, PA Who hopes that some LUGgers will be shooting the NYC Pride parade today, which starts in two hours. He's still nursing his sunburn from the Mermaids. -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+jshul=comcast.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+jshul=comcast.net@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Don Dory Sent: Sunday, June 24, 2007 10:05 AM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] LUG Convention at next year's Mermaid Parade? Jim, I think it is a fabulous idea. Although we might stage it from Philly and take the train up that morning. On 6/24/07, Jim Shulman <jshul@comcast.net> wrote: > > Why not?
