By the Seaside by the Beautiful Sea

We have made plans to spend part of the kids fall school break visiting my mother in New Jersey.  Since Delta quit flying into Atlantic City, the only way for us to get there is to fly into Philadelphia and rent a car then drive down.  Unfortunately, the Pope is planning a visit to the City of Brotherly Love that week as well which really added to the headache and expense of trying to find a place to stay, rent a car and get airfare.  It is finally done and the kids are excited to be going to see their great grandmother as well as their aunt, uncle and cousins.  They love being able to spend time at the beach there and of course the big draw is the boardwalk!  Hopefully, the weather will cooperate and we will be able to spend time doing all these things before we have to go back.  They wanted to stay and see the Pope too.....LOL
