Before I am Famous

Well hello, I haven’t posted in awhile because I was away. On Sunday I went to visit my parents. I told them that we planned to go the Ocean City in NJ on Monday. Well my dad suggested Seaside Heights, NJ. He even went to Mapquest and printed out directions on how to get there.

It was sunny and hot and we followed the directions to the letter. We did not get lost. But the directions took us through these backroads in some NJ town. Hell I don’t even know the names of the towns we were in. Finally, we smelled the fresh sea air. Seaside Heights was really nice and we enjoyed ourselves. This was the first time my daughter was at the beach and she loved it. She loved it so much she couldn’t bring herself to sleep even when she really wanted to.

Well it was time to leave. We wanted to get back at my parents before too late so we can spend some time with them. We reversed our directions. So far so good. Then I don’t know what happened but apparently we couldn’t not find the exact same roads we were on. And there is no left turns in Jersey, so that’s how I think we got lost.

Okay, we drive around and wind up back in, you guessed it, Seaside Heights. Great, I thought we can start over and get on the Jersey turnpike. No, that didn’t happen either. So after a few hours driving around we stop at the 7 eleven and ask for the directions. And we get soem great directions too.

But I mess up this time and instead of taking the Garden State Parkway north to 195, we took it south. But at least I knew how to get back eventhough it took us extra time.

After we got home, we looked at some brochures and found one for a water park at Seaside. And guess what was on the back, really simple directions on how to get there. Now we know for next time because we have some easy directions.

Well, at least it was definitly a trip to remember.

Have a great day!
