Oh, *very* satisfying indeed. Thank you so much for the quick posting of part 2. As I mentioned, I love AU's, and this was just a wonderful read. Looking forward to lots more. :)

So great, so great! I was smiling and laughing through the entire thing. John, Ronan and Teyla teaching yoga is so out there but it works so well. And I absolutely love how you pulled off not writing any explicit sex. There's something so tasteful about that when it's done well and you certainly did a great job.

As for the carousel at Coney Island, it's been years since I last went so I can't say either way.

A small little clarification -- while Coney Island is in Brooklyn and Brooklyn is on Long Island, I don't think I've ever heard anyone ever refer to it being on Long Island. It's probably because Brooklyn is one of the five boroughs and when people talk about Long Island, they really think of Suffolk or Nassau with their more suburban style of living...

Other than that, I fully enjoyed this story. Oh, and I especially loved the little jealous bit at the end. I love jealous!John. XD

I'm pretty sure, technically, being part of the city trumps being on the island in terms of 'where it is'. *G*

Okay, so if I changed it to Brooklyn would that make sense? (lol maps can only tell me so much).

heehee, the yoga. That was my roommate all the way. She was like "okay, this is great but you have to make Ronon a yoga instructor," and I was like, "...WHAT?!"

This was just the best kind of feel good fic to start off my Sunday right. I always worry when people post their fics in installments that somehow the next/last is going to disappoint, but this was just the perfect conclusion.

I hope to read more from you in the future. :D

This was a delight to read. I chuckled through most of it and "awwww"ed through the rest.

Good ending! I like how even once they reconnected, it took a while. If everything had been resolved back in the yoga studio it would have been way too easy. Any using the ferris wheel was perfect. I also loved the little detail that John used to think his mom could turn it on magically.
