Where Have I Been? 2021 Vlog | Shelly Coco
okay it is basically the middle of march now and i have done pretty much nothing obviously we're still in a pandemic all of the clips you're about to see are of my dog all i have done is go to the park and film my dog or like working i'm just working from home working from my cat tower which is my standing desk actually this is the best adjustment i made to working from home is standing instead of sitting i can't believe i sat on the couch for the first few months of working from home and i would just sit on the couch all day and work from home and then watch tv in the evening in the same position oh my god it was really toxic but now i have a nice standing cat tower i have vlogged my dog walks and i just haven't really vlogged anything else because one i haven't done anything else and because of covid the [ __ ] pandemic and two because all i do at home is work from home i've been working really hard the beginning of this year because i need to make money and i work on commission and it's not going well because of covid so yeah uh enjoy these clips of my dog and the dog squad got together which was fun so kate actually came to pick me up and we went to cheesequake park which is only half an hour from brooklyn but it's in new jersey beautiful trails and we hiked in the snow and then we went to a winery so that was fun and then harley and i have been doing adventure weekends and we've been going to the beach at coney island which is nice but that is it i am just dog walking and working from the cat tower and justin and i have been having movie nights but it's just movie night after movie night there is nothing else going on i mean everyone's in the same position aren't they i mean the us obviously you can do whatever you want but is it responsible and safe no so i mean i've tried to do as many coved safe things as i can like me and harley going to coney island when we get the train to coney island in the morning on a weekend there is no one on the train no one in coney island because it's winter and no one wants to be there and we go early in the morning any time that i go out even before covid i go early in the morning so there's no one else there because i hate people so yeah enjoy these dog clips and i'll try and vlog some more oh harley what is it are you ready it's still very dark i've been up since five i just couldn't get back to sleep um so i got up had some porridge uh waited until six and now we're here i think sunrise is at seven hopefully it'll start getting lighter soon it's really windy i don't think harley likes she doesn't want to come on the big field because it's so exposed to the wind Harley come here excuse you Harley come on come here harley here we go go ready hello kate and augustus yeah this is really pretty a little slippery but it's nice oh this would be fun to slide down i know i was saying that it was slippery there's a weird smell it's because it's a wetland oh yeah this is the black run of walkies that's funny are we all so happy? yeah milo you're happy oh they say they do i might need to call in six tomorrow his nose is oh no it was a big day god i have not really properly vlogged all this year i mean but i haven't done anything obviously still in a pandemic and um i don't know we're having such a harsh winter in new york it is snowing again we're having another snowstorm i mean personally i'm loving it because i love the snow and going for a dog walk in the snow is just oh wonderful it's actually all like uh melted snow that's turned to ice underneath here so it's so slippery like the whole field is just jaggedy slippery ice under a thin layer of snow so harley is not too impressed oh for me oh thank you harley you got me some flowers i just decided that um i needed to do something and uh go somewhere different so harley and i have come to coney island today it's not open and it's cloudy and it's cold um but i kind of like that i love the abandoned theme park vibe that it is right now and then there's the beach and the pier it is just so nice i just wanted to go on a long dog walk and be outside holly come here it's great because there's not that many people here harley and i got up early so we could come well for sunrise but i mean it's a little bit pink over there no you can't really see it it's just so cloudy it's just nice to be somewhere different it's so gloomy oh and there's a plastic bag floating in the sea humans are disgusting we have ruined this planet what have you got ready harley it's actually quite upsetting how much plastic is on this beach and how many disposable masks i've seen it's just so depressing so the pier is actually called steeplechase pier after the steeplechase ride which andrew brie and i went on when it was breeze last summer in new york and i hated it i felt like i was gonna come out of the seat it was not secure i'm trying to see if it's on this map i can't see steeplechase on the map but we should go past it when we go through the park so coney island originally was four or three yeah four different parks it was steeple chase park luna park dreamland and sea lion park now i think it is just luna park or maybe it's still different because i know you you have different methods of payment for two different areas um so i think they are still separate but luna park was first opened in 1903 i just love vintage theme parks amusement parks and this will be open in the summer but right now it's like an abandoned theme park i just love the history of coney island and the different parks they also used to have a freak show here like a proper bearded lady freak show and they still do have a freak show but i honestly don't know what they have on show everyone that i have seen on my walk has been so nice and smiley and like gives a wave it's like a secret club like the early morning walking in the cold winter club yeah i don't know what those pieces of track are down there but there is the thunderbolt which goes up vertically and then has a huge vertical drop then loops and loops is this interesting harley yeah oh my god i've just seen people swimming there are people swimming in the sea oh my goodness i bet that is freezing i also love the creepy face of coney island there's still snow on the ground you can see soaring eagle through there that's the right way you lie flat and you go up the windy thing and then you saw down then here's nathan's the famous hot dog place oh my god look at these sad wet bears oh my god those bears are soaked see i'm loving this abandoned amusement park vibe so this is the steeplechase ride that i went on with brie and andrew and that the pier is named after you like sit the um the seats are covered so i can't show you but you sit on a horse and then there's a thing that goes against your back but you're not really secure and then you go so fast around this track and it turns you right on the side i screamed the entire way round and then brian andrew went on again without me oh to walk around here at night how creepy there's one ride on it just turned on and there's no one on it there's the subway and then there's the cyclone which is supposed to be the world's oldest roller coaster i love this wall art says by 2050 the oceans will contain more plastic than fish the artist is down here and her instagram's there so this was a mural competition this one is by sheena wong shui this one's by thomas manco and then this is the aquarium which kitty and i went to in maybe 2011 2012 and i cried at how small the tank was for the sharks and the turtles it was honestly horrific i would say don't go there it does say wildlife conservation society park but i really was not happy with the tanks the size of the tanks it was honestly so depressing when we went it may have changed because it's been almost 10 years i just wasn't a fan um so i would maybe do research i don't know i'm not a big fan of aquariums or zoos unless it is purely rescues and rehabilitation and that can't go back into the wild i can hear sea lions they have um these rock sculptures here and they've put um i guess figures of different sea life on them and you have to identify them so harley just saw the horseshoe crab which we see a lot of when we go to cape may it's a horse i mean defund the nypd but also what a dream job riding up and down the boardwalk on a horse on a sunday so this is where the freak show was i honestly don't know if it's still open oh they don't call it a freak show they call it a sideshow i mean a freak show or a side show is just like not politically correct anymore where are you going okay it is um a week later now and harley and i are going to coney island again um it's much colder though last time i was just in a fleece now i've got the full winter coat hat gloves i thought we should take advantage of the fact that dogs are allowed on the beach in winter because once summer's here it'll be crowded with people and dogs aren't technically allowed on the beach i think it's maybe april through october so we're having another coney island day today we had hot cross buns for breakfast this morning which was so nice jill sent me an easter package yesterday which i'll show you when we get back 19 and keep our city safe this way come on good girl good girl oh my god it's so much colder than when we came last week but it's actually kind of sunny when the sun breaks through oh it's nice i love a winter beach i feel like the sea is so much calmer than mommy came last week as well this is so wonderful there is no [ __ ] here no [ __ ] here i think this is so cold and last week it was kind of mild it was still cold i'm keeping my face mask on to keep my face warm it's actually very practical oh this is lovely last week when we came there was so much trash on the beach it's not because the tide was coming in or tide was going out i assumed tide's going out now because most of the beach is like wet yeah but it's so much nicer i don't know we're here at the same time i don't know how tides work there are still plastic bags embedded in the sand but at least it looks a bit nicer there was a woman picking up trash last week i feel like maybe we should do that on our walk do some litter picking hey hulk my shoes are waterproof it just feels weird these are my vessies they're waterproof but honestly the best thing just for walking in the park when the grass is dewy someone looking for treasure over there with their metal detector and their shovel he's obviously been digging small holes all along here don't think he's found anything i mean what do you find coins he really thought he found something here shiny
