My son had a baseball tournament in Ocean City, Maryland the end of June.
It’s been a very busy and stressful year for our family and we all longed for breaks in our routine. My middle kids couldn’t go because they took a summer algebra class at their university. I didn’t really want to go but I wanted to watch my son play in his last tournament.
I’ve never been to that part of the Atlantic coast.
Yes, the bridge is really that big and scary.


It’s not my favorite place. It just seemed like one thing after another – a terribly dangerous heat wave, the AC broke in the condo building and we had to move, I lost my favorite prescription sunglasses in the ocean.
The food was absolutely excellent though.
Of course I ate my weight in crab.
We loved Harpoon Hanna’s, just over the Delaware border.
Lombardi’s was great pizza.
Our favorite place was Fish Tales Bar and Grill. We sat on a sandy deck harborside and the food was outstanding.
We ate at the Greene Turtle twice because my son loved the turkey sandwich lol

While I loved seeing my son play baseball, the highlight of the trip for me was visiting Assateague Island!

It is the end of an era for my son, who played on this baseball team for about four years and now the team is dissolved. He learned a lot and improved so much and is now moving on to better teams with better coaches – both elite travel in Cincy and for our local high school.

I’m glad you were able to see your son’s last game. Ocean City looks like a nice place to visit too.
Gosh I haven’t been to Ocean city since I was in college; I remember it being a fun little beach town.
The beach is gorgeous, such a shame you had some issues during your stay but great that you got to see your son’s last game! Fab photos!
