When I visit Asbury Park, I always think about
Bruce Springsteen, The Boss and his album "Greetings From Asbury Park"
Although he grew up in Freehold, New Jersey
Asbury Park was the center of his musical universe, and the subject of many of his songs.
Our home is less than 30 minutes from Asbury Park,
and
is one of my favorite boardwalks to visit.
Less commercial then many of the other boardwalks at the Jersey Shore,
both made famous by Bruce.
The Asbury Park beaches are really beautiful, the beaches are long the sand is pure white.
Asbury Park is the home to The Berkley Hotel once owned by Johnny Cash
We had dinner outside at
I had Pesto Pasta, topped with fresh diced tomatoes and pine nuts...
YuM!!
The hubs had surf and turf.
Was there desert you ask?? Why yes, yes there was...
I had the black and white Creme' Brûlée
The hubs had the Apple Crumble
This is my favorite restaurant in the area, everything was so good,
The night ended with this beautiful shelf cloud I photographed on my way home.

Certainly looks a great place for all ages Debbie, no wonder you enjoy visiting there.
The Moonstruck Restaurant put me in mind of that film I re-watch every now and then with Cher (it's so romantic)....
Enjoyed your beach shots and the sunset too. Beaut post :D)
Gorgeous photos and a great event!
Tell me, how do your health issues affect your trips? We have to work hard around hubby's dairy, yeast and egg allergies!!
Such a different world you have to enjoy along the Jersey Shore!
Terrific pics of a great day out, I will have to say I love your sky pictures and the waves crashing against the rocks, I can just hear it now :) I will have to say I do love me some apple crumble so your hubs choice looks quite yummy to me :)
Looks like a wonderful place!! Lots of neat things to see and do---what is your favorite Bruce song??
Oh my this looks like such a awesome place to visit. I love when you share your adventures to such fun and unique places. The beach looked peaceful and lovely. Always enjoy your photos of the waves crashing against the rocks. You do get the best evening shots too; so lovely.
Your food looked scrumptious and I especially liked your hubs dessert. Now I want some! The Moonstruck Restaurant looks inviting. I love the piano with the microphone. I can just picture a good oldie being sung. Blessings and hugs for this one!
I always like water parks
Hello, looks like a great day on the boardwalk. I would like a place that is not too crowded. I love Bruce Springsteen's music. The dinner and dessert look yummy. Beautiful sky shot. Happy Friday, enjoy your weekend!
The beaches look beautiful - and then there's your dinner (yumm!!!!)
What a great day in the neighborhood (you lucky girl you!)... I'd love to visit that beach/boardwalk and all the iconic places we've only heard in song. And the food ... oh my gosh. I'll have what you're having!!!
