Point Pleasant Beach, NJ by Adrian

We have been to the jersey shore many times but never stopped at Jenkinson's Boardwalk at Point Pleasant Beach. Since Serene's cousin is in town, we decided to check it out. Moreover, this was the first time we headed back to the Jersey Shore, post Sandy, besides Atlantic City. As we passed Asbury Park (hometown of Bruce Springsteen), we saw a few houses still in terrible shape due to Sandy's wrath. Unfortunately, we did not manage to take any pictures. The good news is that majority of the properties have been repaired.

Overall, we had fun at Jenkinson's Boardwalk. It was definitely worth the trip for the Labor Day weekend.
