Delaware - Sea Shells on the Sea Shore

If you want to look for shells, then Delaware is the place to "sea" shells. Delaware was one of my favorite states. We went to the beach almost every day. We also ate popcorn and had a smoothie.

We went to several beaches in Delaware. My favorite was Bethany Beach. All we did was collect shells, but it was fun because of their huge waves. They have better waves than California. Plus the game Chloe and I played is perfect with the waves. How you play is you try to gather shells while the wave hasn't come in. When the wave comes, you run away to not get wet. Chloe and I collected millions of shells, only a few were whole ones though.

One other beach we went to was Rehoboth Beach. At Rehoboth Beach there was a boardwalk that was about a mile long. We loved their beach because of the special game we played there too. It's called "Don't Get Wet and Protect Your Name in the Sand With Rocks and Water All Around You." It's really fun because you have to strategize where you are going to build a wall or a ditch. We played the game twice at the same rock pile. The game changed because of the blowing sand over night.

Slaughter Beach is the third and last beach we went to. Now I don't know why people name beaches "Slaughter" because who wants to go there? The beach was just as bad as its name. It was not well maintained at all. They had millions of horseshoe crab skeletons lying around. It was also a rocky beach with small sharp rocks instead of sand. The water itself was dirty, and it also had a rotten dead fish smell. Plus to get to the beach you had to walk through dune grass. That beach was definitely not my favorite.

Fisher's Popcorn is of course a popcorn shop, and they do make really good caramel corn. They don't make strawberry flavor or chocolate just caramel and regular, but that was some of the best popcorn on the trip. Another restaurant we ate at was Greenman Juice Bar and Bistro. It didn't have very much room and only had eight tables. We ordered sandwiches and one smoothie to split. I got the Eco Chick which has the two essentials. It had chipotle mayo and chicken on it, along with some other ingredients. It was a good sandwich.  The only problem was they didn't make the chipotle flavor stand out. The smoothie we ordered with our meal was really good though.

DiscoverSea Shipwreck Museum was a museum devoted to shipwrecks. They had many different items there from gold coins to a centuries old ear wax picker. The owner was a great guy.  He scuba dives for the artifacts himself.  I liked looking at their items from the SS Republic which is the ship that the Titanic replaced. He even had a camera that had film he developed, so you can see the pictures.

Golf Down Under was a fun and difficult mini golf course. Of course I won that mini golf course. My favorite hole was a straight hole that you had to hit it up a hill at the end.

Delaware was a sandy state. Delaware was also a great food state. We had a many things to see but not as much as we "see" shells.
