Ocean City, New Jersey

Make way for summer.  The Ocean City Boardwalk has suddenly taken off for a new season that will make the thousands of tourists one again glad they came to visit the Boardwalk.

 Ocean City, New Jersey has been named one of the top family vacation spots.

The beach stretches for eight miles with beautiful clean white sand and a wonderful rolling surf.

On the boardwalk you can find affordable shops, restaurants,  and many activities for the young and young at heart.

The many amusement rides, and miniature golf provide endless entertainment.

It was especially delightful watching the happy faces of children.  The screams were loud as they whirled  and twirled on the rides of up and down or round and round. 

It was fun watching the crafters making fudge and salt water taffy.  A sample of salt water taffy was difficult to choose since there were so many flavors.



This certainly looks like the catch of the day.  Fishing and boating offer many individuals this popular sport.



An evening stroll on the boardwalk is entertaining, just taking a break and watching people enjoying themselves makes you feel your in the right place at the right time.






From racing cars to bumper cars, just getting behind a wheel makes happy smiles.







 

Since it was evening many rides were waiting for the children.



 




During the summer a String Band from Philadelphia parades the boardwalk.


The wonderful smell of popcorn, hot dogs and other delicious foods filled the air adding to the smell of the shore.


Salt water taffy could be purchased in so many different flavors.

This miniature golf course like so many others was an attraction for children and adults.


I know I can.  I know I can.  And I can do it because I am on tippy toe.


Darkness had arrived and the boardwalk suddenly became alive after a sleepy summer day.
