The Brooklyn Ink, the Brooklyn blog of Columbia University's School of Journalism had this to say this morning:

If
you missed Coney Island's annual opening day yesterday, and if you
missed your daily doze of The Brooklyn Ink, we recommend that you log
on to check out what was taking place in the borough's entertainment capitol.

Hear what vendors have to say about the coming year, will it be a new beginning or a new end? And get a guided tour of Coney Island's attractions, from a long-time resident.

See what's in store for the Cyclone from Miss Cyclone herself, watch the Coney Island Polar Bear's go for a swim and check out opening day fashions.

But be warned, no breakfast before we take you on a ride on the Cyclone.
