This morning we packed up the car and drove out of the city to my favorite place on Earth – Long Beach Island. It feels so good to be here. There is just something about the ocean air and watching the waves crash against the shore that makes you feel at ease. Plus my family is here, which is always the biggest bonus.
Our plans include lots of BBQ’s and lobsters and french fries and ice cream and Rita’s (!!) and playground trips, and playing on the beach and dipping our toes in the ocean and visiting the bookstore and the toy store. And I’m hoping to get a bit of a tan!
I hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend in the sun!!
