We celebrated a special day here in Asbury Park going for a Pedal Boat adventure on Wesley Lake.
In the background, you can see the Victorian homes of Ocean Grove, this is a nice size lake,
separating Asbury Park and Ocean Grove.
It is a very calm body of water...no motor boats are allowed.
These are the
I always thought they were "paddle" boats but alas, they are not.
This spot in Asbury Park is really beautiful and a great place to watch the sunset.
The people who own this attraction are usually here but on this night they were not.
I missed seeing the "Swan Lady", she is just so kind and fun to talk to.
The boats are immaculate, they wipe down the life vests and boats before they are reused,
and offer so much help getting into the boat.
The girl that was working on this night was amazing, just as kind and helpful as the Swan Lady.
I remember when the Swan Lady told me she was getting a
Purple Swan, she was so excited for me.
We had dinner at
It came with mashed potatoes and a vegetable.
The hubs had a Filet Mignon with Shrimp, Mashed Potatoes and a Vegetable Medley.
It is served warm and is the best Creme' Brulee I have ever eaten.
It was a wonderful evening!
What a lovely time you had, the meal looks delicious.
