Under The Boardwalk




Sometimes the best dates are the ones that our grandparents used to go on... every once and awhile you have to revert to the classics. We all remember the scene in The Notebook when Noah and Alli meet at the carnival for the first time and Noah makes a fool out of himself to get Alli's attention on the Ferris wheel. Well it's time to act that out for yourself. Take a trip to your local carnival, county fair, or in our case board walk and have good old clean fun! Nate and I walked the boardwalk holding hands before ducking into an old photo booth to take a few pictures and steal a few kisses. Then we made it to the end of the pier where we played all of the classic boardwalk games. Nate finally won me a stuffed rabbit at the game where you shoot water into a clowns mouth until the balloon behind their head bursts and squirts water everywhere. (In case you were wondering I let him win of course because my squirt gun skills are far superior to his but don't tell him I told you so wink wink.) Then we bought funnel cake, candied apples, cotton candy and two tickets for the Ferris wheel. We looked at the whole boardwalk and ocean while we were stuck at the top and exchanged sticky cotton candy kisses. As we came down from the ride and the boardwalk slowed down as the night ended we walked on the beach watching the moon hit the ocean and enjoying every minute of it. You have to slow down and pay attention to each moment you have together or else the magic of it all will pass you by.
