Anyone remember that scene in Wayne's World where they were playing with the blue screen? They were pretending to travel to different places around the country, and when they ended up in Delaware they had nothing to say except "hey... we're in Delaware." Well... I ended up in Delaware this weekend, and discovered that although there's truly not much to do there you can still have a nice time.
We went down to Rehoboth Beach for a long weekend (we both took Friday off) to have a little rest and relaxation. Unfortunately, Friday turned out to be a crappy day with some rain showers and cold temperatures. We roughed it out and looked around the main strip of Rehoboth. We couldn't really walk on the boardwalk that day because it was too cold and windy for the baby. There seems to be a large British influence in this area. The main old hotel on the beach (where we didn't stay) flies the British Flag proudly, and there are a lot of fish and chips places and like three Thrasher's restaurants (I use the term lightly). Of course there are like 50 Grotto Pizza places and I don't think the town is particularly Italian...
One of the fun things we did while we were there was eat at this crab house called Claws. We both went with the all you can eat crabs and corn on the cob special. It's pretty fun getting to eat your dinner with a mallet. Those crabs never stood a chance.
On Saturday, the weather got nicer, although we did have to deal with some showers at night. Sunday, of course was beautiful for the drive back to NYC. (BTW, driving 4 hours with a 7 month old in the car is not easy...)
Today... back to work.
