We capped off our weekend at the beach with a trip to the Rehoboth boardwalk for an early lunch and some fun time. This morning was kind of dreary out so it seemed like a good time to take advantage of the boardwalk fries, pizza, ice cream, and arcades.
We started out by having lunch at Grotto Pizza. Grotto Pizza is the classic beach pizza around here and let me tell you something…it sucks. It was greasy and somehow watery and really not that flavorful. I think we should have known better.
However, we up for the disappointing pizza with taffy and ice cream. Nothing beats a twist cone with chocolate jimmies at the beach.
We walked up and down the boardwalk for a while, stopping at a couple of arcades along the way. All of us got some good practice on the skee-ball machines and by the end, Jackson was totally getting into a groove. We won enough to win Aubrey yet another stuffed animal until we moved to a different arcade to play some more games. All of the kids got their chance at whack-a-mole, air hockey, and even more skee-ball until we had enough tickets to win everyone else a prize.
It was a fun way to end a weekend that went way too quickly. It was fun hanging out at the beach with kids. Our weekend wasn’t quite as relaxing as usual, but it’s never boring when your with the Abels. I wish we had few more days though. Weekends are never long enough these days!
