Yeah, but unless you are a history buff, or a local, how many people would actually take the time to visit just for the Morro Castle? If I had my say, I'd steer our boardwalk area to be focused on music and entertainment. Those are proven attractions,... If AP had a rock and roll museum that highlighted Bruce and the others who are tied to our city, people would come from all over the US, Europe and the world to check it out. ===================== I'm all for the focus on music you mention above. But a few years ago, before Cookman and our boardwalk came alive again, I used to take visitors to Point Pleasant Beach where the Tiki Bar was my favorite destination. ;-) A few benny friends spotted Jenkinson's aquarium and and wanted to go in. Never an aquarium fan, I had to be dragged into the place. Turned out it was entertaining and great fun. I realize that it isn't a "simple attraction"--looks like they didn't take the cheapest route--so we may not be ready for such risks -- yet. But I also see their web site is inviting tourists to the Aquarium's Sea of Lights, dressed in its holiday best during December and into January: http://www.jenkinsons.com/aquarium/index.cfm Happy Thanksgiving all. **************One site has it all.
