Misc (Kayaking) 1:00:00 [1] 2.66 mi (22:33 / mi)

Almost to the Atlantic Ocean!!



A different view of the bridge...


I have never been in a kayak on water this big. A little choppy but nothing the sit on top couldn't handle.


The Atlantic City Yacht Club...

Biking (Boardwalk) 30:35 [1] 5.37 mi (5:42 / mi)

A ride on the boardwalk, because I could.



The view at the end.



Plenty of people still out.

Note

Walked down to the beach, and on the way we introduced Big Yellow to the others...



Despite being a little intimidated by this big bruiser...



...she decided to stay!!



See you later Big Yellow. Don't blow away!

Pool (Ocean) 10:00 [1]

Aunt Nora, looking a bit serious

Misc (Parasailing) 1 [0] +2m

Out with a young couple, and luckily for them, no one else, since they both got motion sickness. Rough ride around to the ocean, and they they were up first. Fun, but not really very thrilling. And, I didn't get sick.

Biking 54:01 [1] 9.07 mi (5:57 / mi) +3m 5:57 / mi

Anoth bike ride, another bridge, or two to conquer. Fun coming back with the wind - speed indicator clocked me at 25mph!

May rent a kayak tomorrow and see some closer up of the bay...

Walking (Boardwalk) 10:00 [1]

Note

Biking 1:00:00 [1] 11.5 mi (5:13 / mi) +3m 5:13 / mi

A ride over towards Atlantic City, and then back to OC, along the bay side.

Harder getting to the top of the bridge on the return trip into the wind!



But, I made it!



The cottage we are staying in...



And a pretty hibiscus...

Pool 10:00 [1]

Walking (Boardwalk) 5:00 [1]

A ton of people out. Will go back on Monday for goodies to take home.

Note

Trail Run 36:41 [1] 2.37 mi (15:29 / mi)

Ran 1/4 mile, walked 1/4 mile X 2, then walked the rest. Along the way, I looked for beach treasures, and I thought about my mom and how much she loved coming to Ocean City this week each year.

After, I took a refreshing swim in the ocean.

Today's turtles...I wonder if people leave offerings?



Aunt Nora...

Pool (Ocean) 5:00 [1]

Swimming 30:00 [1]

A sticky day at work, so a swim was good, especially since it is between summer camps and school swim classes - water was cool and crisp.

Yesterday, after the thunder storms had gone through, TWO turtles were sighted in the backyard. Will have to rely on the AP turtle expert to answer Roger's query on why one was so much darker than what we usually see...or, I could google it...but I'll let Anna have first shot at it...
