Timeline
17:44
Grab a quick bite at Sam's Kebab & Gyros. The kitchen is open until 20:30, so you have plenty of time before the sun goes down. Order something light to keep your hands free for the walk.
18:44
Walk to Pixieland Amusement Park. It is a short stroll from the restaurant. Arrive with an hour to spare. The park is free to enter, though rides cost extra. You do not need to ride them. Simply wander the grounds and watch the sky change color over the carousel and train tracks. The late afternoon light is gentle on the small structures.
19:44
Find a spot near the edge of the park to watch the sunset. The sun sets toward the WNW on this date. The light will fade quickly, but the atmosphere of the park shifts in a quiet, nostalgic way as the shadows lengthen. Stay for the moment itself.
20:29
Bambino's Italian Restaurant and Bar
Head to Bambino's Italian Restaurant and Bar for dinner and a drink. It is a short walk from Pixieland. The restaurant is open until 22:00 on weekdays and until 22:00 on weekends. It is a good place to stretch your legs after the walk and enjoy a meal while the evening settles in.
Local tip
Pixieland is a small park. You can see the whole place in ten minutes. Do not rush the sunset view. The best light is right at the moment the sun dips below the horizon.
