We also had an opprotunity to eat at Pickles resturant in seaside and try their fried pickles. The pickles were wonderful my family agreed- and my husband is a pickle connoisseur. Really. He is. The atmosphere was very casual on New Year's Eve and that is just what we wanted. The service was fairly quick and their prices were in line with the area. It would be a great place to walk up from the beach and eat at. Here is the link: http://www.sweetwilliamsltd.com/pickles.html
Tips for a New Year's Eve at Seaside:
-Have a blanket or chair handy to watch the concerts.
- Bring something for the kid(s) to do if you plan on staying late for the fireworks. Listening to music for a few hours won't work. Don't expect it to.
- Prepared to park and walk. We brought a stoller- it made parking and walking a breeze.
Here is an overview of the night...
As we walked up to the festivities, the first thing that we spotted was balloon making. And there was a ling. How cool?!
The ballon making lady. On stilts.
The craft tent. They had two crafts for the kids to decorate the noise makers to bring in the new year. Our little one was super excited.
Craft #1. There were tons of fuzzies and beads to put on the boxes of noise! He loved it.
Craft #2 was a tube to decorate with gliter, paper and sequins. Inside, we wrote our favorite memory from the year and locked it in. What's better than glue and glitter? All of the kids around were excited to decorate their noise makers. And, at that sight we were prepared for lots of noise making at 12:00 AM January 1, 2012.
The crowd. Seaside had several bands rocking the stage to entertain families. They were pretty mellow.
Then, Camden decided he was hungry, so we were off to Pcikles to grab a bit. Mommy and Camden @ Pickles.
Fun with Daddy.
Happy 2012!
