Wildwood

togatweeter by togatweeter · Jul 14, 2003 · 208 views · Journal

woohoo! i finally got to go on a real vacation to Wildwood. it's been like 10 years since my last one, which was Virginia Beach. Wildwood is great! much better than Seaside to me. we got there around 11pm friday and i settled my things down at Barcelona motel. i looked in the phonebook for a kingdom hall but there wasn't one. so then i fell asleep. the motel was right next to the beach, and i could see the moon over the ocean, it was real neat. then saturday, first thing i did was use the motel's pool. the water was so warm! then i go down to the beach. the water was so cold! i caught some waves and tanned for a while. then i headed out to the boardwalk. that was real cool. it's like 2 miles long of booths and rides. even tho i just looked around tho (cuz i was short on funds), it was still nice. after the boardwalk i came back to the motel and had chinese food. it was night time now and then i just walked on the beach for a bit. afterward i went to sleep. then sunday, i went to the beach again and then the pool. i left the motel around 3pm and went to the boardwalk to get a lunch. i got pizza and cheese fries (mmm-mmm good!) then i went back home. i had so much fun, i wanna go back again sometime. then i came in time before the eZabel party ended, so that was good. and i had a great time there too, and thanks to Ian and his fam again, and to theremin for giving me a ride home :D

togatweeter #2.1 togatweeterOG 2003

yah i loved it. the water is pretty clean and the sand is powdery like sugar

i love the wildwood boardwalk because the tickets work at all 3 piers. not seperate tickets for each pier, which sadly, hunkapapappapa had to find out about seaside.

HAHAHAHA!! I know, what a gip. We picked the wrong side..

oh, i forgot to mention how annoying the tramcars on the boardwalk are. they have this button for people who don't move out of the way and when they push the button, it shouts "Watch the tramcar please!" and the tramcar operators would push the button so much! it was funny at first but got annoying after a while

I would have just turned around and stared at it. and when they pushed the button again, I would have concentrated more.

yuk! too scary...

thatdarngirl #4.2 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Yeah..we definetly enjoy standing in the path of the tramcar and not moving until the last possible second.

togatweeter #4.2.1 togatweeterOG 2003

LOL me and my cousins did that, pretty hilarious. hey, it's NJ law, gotta yield to pedestrians.

thatdarngirl #4.2.1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

We put that law to good use every time we cross busy streets and highways without looking both ways and just holding up our hands expecting the cars to stop.

malibu malibuOG 2001

yeah. famous words of vanessa (who's gotten hit 4 times by a car) "they're not gonna hit you, they'll stop." thats why she leads intersection crossings.

it made me think that if i had that job hearing that stupid thing all day long would make me want to hurl myself in front of one.
