Looking for something different this weekend? Need a break from all of the blooming green, pollen-laden plants? Why not head down to the Jersey Shore and visit Absecon Lighthouse, on the corner of Pacific and Rhode Island Avenues in Atlantic City, NJ. It's the tallest lighthouse in NJ, and the 3rd tallest in the United States and is a pretty cool place to visit.
And if you visit this Sunday, May 20, 2012, you'll get to experience a real adventure--it's "Be A Pirate Day!". From 11:00-3:00 pm, come on down and meet pirates, watch a pirate show, play pirate games, make pirate crafts, eat snacks, tour the grounds of the Lighthouse and even hike up the 228 steps to the top of the Lighthouse. There's even a pirate cruise at 3:00 pm. Admission is $12 for kids, and $6 for adults, and all proceeds go towards the continuing restoration and maintenance of Absecon Lighthouse.
wish we could go! we'll do it next time...
