I had a wonderful stay at Elvira's apartment in Brooklyn. After spending many years living and working in New York it was truly terrific to stay in such a great apartment in an equally interesting neighbourhood. The subway is just up the road, which will take you all the way to Manhattan. Bay Boys Pizzeria is right there at 2313 86th Street and "boy" do I miss that amazing pizza, Brooklyn's finest if you ask me. But the crowning glory is the unmissable Coney Island and the walk along the boardwalk. It's right close to the apartment and as an ex-New Yorker myself, you haven't really seen New York until you've been to Coney Island. Thanks Elvira.
