We had a great time this past weekend on Chincotoeague Island. The weather could not have been better. It was around 80 and dry. Bright and sunny. Perfect. The oyster festival was very nice as long as you don't mind crowds or waiting quite a while on lines for your food. I have to say my oysters were perfect. They had them fried, on rolls or by themselves, and also right in their shells. I only eat the fried ones. There were also huge bowls of crabs but the lines were just so long that we only had the oysters. We stood in line for those alone around a half hour. There were 3,000 people at this festival and Chincoteague is just a tiny beach town. So it was definitely a huge crowd. I don't think I would do it again because it is very expensive and just way too crowded for me. I'd rather take that money and have a great dinner in a nice restaurant and be served! Just saying.....
Here are some pics of the food and line at the festival and also of my son - "the skater!"
I'll be back soon with a recipe....
