    A new display daily.

    Everyday at the beach, a kite store called
    The Kite Loft, puts out an impressive display of flags and kites! They usually have a theme, and some expert flyers out there doing tricks for you! It is very festive, and always bright and colorful for a great camera shot!

    We almost always go and check out the flags and kites on display in front of the Kite Loft!

    You can't be at the shore, and not notice the Sea Rocket and the OC Rocket going up and back. This is an excellent time for Grandmom to Grandchild. You WILL get a little wet, they make sure of that!
    Dolphin activity with the boat happened both times I took this trip!

    Sea Rocket is a good time, and the fastest trip up to 94th street you will ever take!

    Over the last several decades, Ocean City, Maryland has grown from a small seaside fishing village to become one of the most popular beach vacation destinations in the United States. Ocean City's population is around 10,000 people, but summertime it's over a third of a million with the visitors. Thanks to this fact Ocean City is the second largest city in Maryland. In 2001 Ocean City has got a title "All American City”.

    Miles of clean white-sand beach on the Atlantic Ocean, three-mile long (4,8 km) boardwalk, hundreds of places to stay (hotels, motels, condos and campgrounds), restaurants, nightlife, shopping, boating, golf, fishing, festivals, conventions, surfing, windsurfing, parasailing, museums, amusement parks and other unique activities.

    I like to sit on the wall, or a bench and (rest) and watch the people go by! It is my true belief that everyone is happier at the beach!
    or, (Down the shore, (for NJ folks).

    Bodyboarding is a favorite thing to do for many beachgoers and bodyboards are easy to find for rent or to buy everywhere in Ocean City (lots of shops are in Boardwalk area).

    Getting on our boats and having some fun.
    This was an awesome day.
    The kind of day that you hold its memory long after the day is done.

    My boat is the one on the left, another friend was taking pictures from his boat, sorry they aren't so clear, but we had fun.
    Please remember all the rules of safety when your in the water and/or on a boat.

    This is part of the beach, it is really nice.
    This was taken from the fishing pier, looking down the beach to the north.
