New York City marks the official Start of Summer with the annual Coney
Island Mermaid Parade when the whole city decamps to
the beach
in
Brooklyn for a salty day of seaside fun. There'll be hot dogs
(lots of hotdogs), vintage
fairground attractions and the famous parade on Saturday June
18th, which coincides this year with International Picnic Day!
So if
you can't make it to Coney Island for the Mermaid
Parade, say
Hello to Summer with lunch outdoors, wherever you are!
