July 17 - Day 3 Ocean City - part 2
After nap time, we went to the boardwalk in Ocean City. We loved it!! There was so much for the girls to watch and do (and eat!). We started out eating pizza that was just delicious. I can't remember the name of the place now but it was clearly a landmark.



After pizza we went to one of the amusement parks on the boardwalk. Both girls loved riding the rides!



The Ocean City amusement park we visited (there was another one too but this one seemed to be the biggest).



We started out with the little cars and worked our way up. Abby was grinning and waving the whole ride.



This was the view from the Thomas the Train ride. It was a little train that was elevated (so parents rode with the kids). Right when we were next in line to ride, we were told the ride had to shut down because "something was broken". Fortunately, whatever it was must not have been major. We only had to wait 5 minutes.



Another view from the Thomas the Train ride. We also rode the kid's roller coaster and Abby LOVED it!! I couldn't take pictures on it but she even held her hands up when she saw other kids doing it.



Abby and Olivia posing on one of the many boardwalk benches. Later in the evening it was hard to find a bench that was not occupied.



Posing behind the Ocean City flip flops. :-)



Ocean City boardwalk. It is a truly family oriented place. By the end of the week Abby would say "can we please go to the boardwalk". It was one of her vacation highlights.



No trip to the boardwalk would be complete without ice cream. The funny thing is I found out AFTER buying what I thought was a small ice cream cone that they actually sold much smaller kid cones. Let's just say the birds got about half of this one. :-)
