Foggy Seaside Baby

P1270035

Perfect weather for a walk along the boardwalk today. In a matter of weeks this place is gonna be filled with the highest quality of guido, so to be here on a cloudy, blustery day is the best opportunity to only be mildly offended, skeeved and downright assaulted by the coming flood of obscenity.

So we had a nice walk on the boardwalk. Most of the piers were shut down still and under construction, prepping for the summer. A few shops were open, selling monstrous slices of pizza, profane t-shirts and boogie boards. We wanted to get Yuula a shirt emblazoned with "NJ: Where the weak are killed and eaten" but we couldn't fit it on a onesie. Next time.

The fog made for some creepy looking ferris wheels and roller coasters that you couldn't pay me to get on.

And next to no ocean visibility. Didn't stop us from dragging the girl across the sand to meet her first tidal wave.

We chased some seagulls...

Balancing the camera on a fragile combination of baseball hat and sunglasses we managed to get a family photo. The ocean is implied.

We made it down to the giant boy statue and showed Yuula where she can get the waffles and ice cream, a place we will frequent quite often upon our return to the boardwalk. Tradition.

She had seen enough so Yuula slept on the walk back.
