Our tour guide Paula, was awesome…my boys and I got the biggest charge out of her every time she would say
“Forget aboutit”!~ She was half Italian and half Jewish, a real hoot that is for sure!

This was on the bus, they had a DVD going and it was pretty cool, as they would play movie clips in where certain actors were filmed in Brooklyn. SO many famous people came out of Brooklyn.

This was the sicilian pizza at Spumoni gardens, OMG, that is all I can say!
|
 |
|
This pizza was from the famous Grimaldi’s, it was another OMG moment! |
Did you know Brooklyn has a population of over2.6 million?
Holy cow, I never knew that.
 |
| Having fun takiing pictures as you can see. This was our first stop in Brooklyn, it was Brooklyn bridge park, just gorgeous! |
 |
|
This is the view from the very new park, a lot of history with that bridge, built in 1883, still going strong. They are actually in the process of painting it, and removing all the lead paint. I |
Our last stop of the day was Coney Island.
It was pretty neat, very hot indeed. I have so much more to share with you, but I am truly blogging on the fly here. I am sorry for that, I realize I would make a horrible tour guide today. But hey you got a few pieces of good pizza and a few good pics.
thanks for stopping by…
I thank you for joining in, and so sorry I have not paid a visit, I am sure you understand!~
Oh fun fun for sure. Enjoy!!
Glad you're having fun! The pizza looks amazing!! Can't wait to see more.
Yummilicious tour, Debbie!
I live in NJ but have never been to Brooklyn or Coney Island. Looks like your having fun. You picked a good weather week to visit.
Love your pics!!! That pizza looks oh-so-yummy!! We will be visiting NYC for the first time on August 4th & 5th! Can't wait! Your pics made me even MORE anxious! 🙂
WOW! You are having a fabulous time! I keep clicking my mouse but that pizza hasn't appeared here on my mouse pad yet! I hope it doesn't get cold! lol HAVE FUN! ♥♥♥
A Brooklyn pizza tour??? Oh my…I'm salivating! Have fun Debbie!!!

beautiful photo of you and sister,, look hot there,, yummy pizza,, they say the best is in New York!
Looks like your having a great time. Thanks for taking us along.
Looks like so much fun and of course good eats! New York is on my bucket list but only when it is fall or late fall when they start decorating for the holidays.
What a fantastic way to take in New York City – A Brooklyn Pizza Tour!
Enjoy the great sites, good food, and the priceless time with your family!
I wish I were on the Brooklyn Pizza tour! Have fun!
That looks amazing! I will be doing that one day for sure!!
Pizza = Yummy! Love the pics!
It's a good thing I just had dinner, otherwise I'd be ordering a pizza about now because of those yummy looking pizza photos! Glad you're having fun!

I have to live vicariously through you. I can't wait to return to NY city again, someday.
Looks like a fantastic (and yummy) trip! :O)
Pizza look yummy and looks like you're having a fabulous time!
Looks like you and the guys are having a grand time. Great shots. Makes me want to order out a pizza.
Oh Sicilian pizza, yum, yum, yum! Have fun & don't worry about blogging for us…you enjoy.
Sounds like you are having a great time, Debbie! A pizza tour? Wow, I've never heard of that before! Sounds like that would be right up my alley! Enjoy the rest of your trip:)
Yummy!!!! Looks like you are having a great time! Enjoy!
I'm so glad you're enjoying your time in this neck of the woods. Tour looks like something we'd like to do. While you're in New York you should try Artichokes pizza. 328 E. 14th St. NewYork, NY 10003 (between 1st and 2nd Ave.) Finger lickin' good!
It looks like so much fun! Love the picture of your son and the pizza. Brooklyn continues to grow because, compared to Manhattan, housing is more affordable there.
wow looks like you guys are haveing a blast cant wait to hear all about it when you get hereBeatrice cant wait to see you all Love
Do you mind emailing me a slice of pizza?! Your pictures are amazing. Look like a post card!
I will have to tell the hubby about this tour. He is from New York and ALWAYS has to compare Ohio pizza to New York style pizza and believe me, according to him, they don't know how to make pizza in Ohio. Have fun!
Great pictures! Now I know you did not drove all the way to Brooklyn for a steak. Pizza is where it's at! ….. And I thought you were there visiting cousin Vinny! lol
How sweet to have a half sister in Jersey!!! Jersey ROCKS!
Dee
What fun! We'd have to skip the Pizza tour, because of WD being gluten-free, but boy am I drooling over the pics! Thanks for sharing.
Debbie, looks like you're having a blast!! I am so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so jealous!!! I love NYC ESPECIALLY Grimaldi's pizza — it's the best!!!! (I'm not a fan of pizza, but love Grimaldi's)…

Ok it's breakfast time and all I'm thinking about is pizza!
I loved this post Debbie! You took fabulous pizza photos..I wanted to take a bite right through my screen :0)
We love both styles of pizza and have a hard time choosing a favorite but usually the spumoni at Spumoni Gardens makes us go there!
Hugs from one of the 2.6 million Brooklynites,
