Fishing Day

We did a day trip to ocean city, NJ today and Manny and Shayna went fishing on the bay on the "Family Fisherman" boat. They did REALLY well, and Shayna even caught the first fish! They didn't bring any home, as they were all throwbacks (they have to be at least 12 inches to keep). Shayna caught 6 Sea Bass and Manny caught 2 Sea Bass.

It was a hot day, sunny and about 80-84F. We also went early so we could have breakfast at Doc's, at our old- FIRST-marina in Somers Point. What a wonderful breakfast. They even had our table waiting for us, all set elegantly, when we walked in! Its so classy and the view is so nice. The food is the best- they had sauteed onions with the potatoes and the french toast there is just like I remembered (when they used to serve breakfast every day in 1999, then they stopped serving breakfast for a few years and now serve breakfast on sundays only). Its the only place I have had French toast made that way- thick cut, lightly fried with a cinnamon crispy layer (like a monte crisco sort of). Its also not pricey- was cheaper then the rip off Beach Club Hotel restaurant. Shayna faintly remembered the french toast (she was only 2 1/2 but loved it then), but she loved it this time too and ate every last crumb. You may not think there can be much variation in how a place makes eggs & toast but this is the best for that too.

Next: what Skyler and I did while they went fishing.
