I’m not a fan of heights, but this is one height I can deal with.
Jeff and I had a fabulous Saturday. First we drove south on the Garden State Parkway about 40 miles until we hit Cape May, NJ. This is the last stop off the parkway. It’s all about quaint shops, aromatic restaurants, giant old churches, sandy beaches, and more. We walked, shopped, and enjoyed a luscious lunch at Gecko’s Southwestern Restaurant in the middle of town. After walking a little more, we both had a hankering for a good cup of joe, so we hopped into the Kia and headed back 25 miles north, to Ocean City, NJ. This is one of Jersey’s more famous shore/resort cities, with, yes, you guessed it, shops, restaurant, churches, sandy beaches, and a rather extensive boardwalk. WITH RIDES! Jeff indulged my picture taking quirks and stood by as I clicked off a few shots of one of the rides I can still handle.
These are not the tallest of heights, but they still can provide you with a beautiful view of the ocean as well as the city. It was a bit chilly so I begged off on the ride, but watched others soar to mini-heights as I captured their adventures. Then, finally, we headed off for that cup of joe.
COLORFUL HEIGHTS

Dear Bliary 
These photos are beautiful. It must be quite a sight seeing the view from up there.
Gorgeous from what I recall from my ride this summer.
Have a great week at school, Colline.
Thank you. It has been hectic so far 🙂
I remember. 😉
I’m sure you’re having fun with it. I’m betting you’re an awesome teacher.
Thank you 🙂
great shots ! I don’t do heights, even ladders 🙂
🙂
Stay grounded!
🙂
Such cool pictures. Did you do the effects? Or did that thing change colors? I can do heights better than rides. *shiver* My rides days are over.
…and yes, I noticed the new after-picture. Halloween. GAH!
What Halloween? That’s my friend, Benny Bones. (Sounds like he’s in the mob – hey! yo! Fagetaboudit!)
😉
Those two Ferris wheels change color on the own.
See you tomorrow! YAY!
Sounds like an AWESOME day! Good for you!! (Love the pics!)
Thanks, Jen. 😉

Great shots!! It will be fun to ride it!!!
You can certainly see some sites from there. Thanks for visiting, Pravina. 🙂
WOW!!! That is height for sure. I love these!
🙂
Love your photos 🙂
Thanks!
Fantastic shots of that Ferris Wheel, Gemma. It’s a good while since I went on one of those. I think that these days, I prefer to view from the ground. At least in a plane, I feel safer. 🙂
Ahhhh and ugh! Not me!!!!! That’s why I’m always here!
Sounds like a great day out Gemma ! Nice to take off out for one of those .
Love the Big Wheel they are very popular aren’t they .. but not so keen on the ride myself .. mind you I would still like to go up on the London Eye sometime 🙂
I had to google London Eye. (You learn something new every day) That thing is humongous! I’d give that a go! 🙂
Great images! I’d rather stay at the ground…
Haha. That’s the general consensus, but they are really pretty cool. Thanks for the visit, Amy.
Beautiful shots! Sounds like my kind of day.
Thanks, Dawn. 🙂
Your Jeff sounds like the perfect partner 🙂 Happy days!
That he is. Third time’s a charm. 🙂
If at first you don’t succeed? Happy for you 🙂
Ammmazing! Made me a bit dizzy….in a good way, of course! 😉
😉
Fantastic shots Gemma. I can see you had lots of fun. 😀 *hugs*
