Jones Beach Saturday Fun

Jones Beach Saturday

Yesterday we decided to go to Jones Beach to see the Humpback Whale that washed up on shore Thursday. We get to the toll booth and hubby handed the clerk $10 for parking. As she took the money she informed us that the whale was removed. Ok, so now we need to put that $10 to good use.

Only took a few pics since my batteries died. We still had fun and hubby looks like he's wanting to go to the "other side"

The only thing on the "other side" was the beach. We still had a good time even without the whale being there.

Jackie: Love the second photo. So bright and colorful. At least you made the best of the afternoon despite the change of plans.

Hi Chris Ann, thank you. It was still nice walking around the boardwalk. It was a cloudy day and not a lot of people there.

Hi Jackie:

I always carry a spare battery!!!

Except for some clouds, it was a nice day yesterday.

Hi Kenneth, yes we did.

Hi Toula, the batteries were freshly charged. They are probably too old now so it's time for new ones. It was nice yesterday and no crowds because of it.

I hope Dead Whales are not part of the New York Visitor Bureau pitch. :)

Hi Gene, I don't think so. I was surprised they did it so quickly. 2 days.

Thank you for being the eyes for my old stomping grounds Jackie!

I love seeing photos of the places I used to go to on a regular basis!

Hi Craig, I wish I had more. I charged the batteries the night before but looks like they can't hold a charge anymore. I plan on doing more Localism posts so be warned, lol.

Hello Jackie - Sorry you missed the whale. I'm happy to hear that you still had a nice time. Have a great week.

Hi Andy, We did. It would have been interesting to see that whale sort of up close. It was 2 to 3 years old. Still a baby :( You have a great week too!
