Ocean City, MD...2009






This year we went to OC,MD. The kids really like it there. Each day the weather was great! We did get incredible rain, hail, winds, and flooding on the second day, but that was after we got home from the beach and it lasted overnight only to clear up the following day. The hail, wind, and flooding was really intense. We ate in the Irish pub in our hotel and their roof started to leak! On Tuesday, we visited the Western-themed water park (sorry , no pics). We had a great time playing golf, riding on the water slides and our favorite- the lazy river ride! Of course we also walked the boardwalk and adopted 2 hermit crabs, which are now being called Volcano (Tim's) and Oreo (Austin's). Later in the week it was the Jesus on the beach Christian festival, so we got to see a beach baptism-I was impressed, more than anyone else. There was a new place called the Pirate museum, which we visited as well as the Ripley's Believe It Or Not Museum. This year Timmy got really upset in Ripley's Museum and we had to move a bit more quickly. He viewed something that scared him and the dim lighting and crowds just made it overwhelming for him. Overall...the beach was our favorite activity....Austin spent much of the time on his boogie board and both boys loved playing in the sand!
