Point Pleasant Beach, New Jersey


There are many beaches in the coastline of New Jersey; definitely Point Pleasant beach is one among them which is pleasant to go during the weekends in summer. Point Pleasant beach is far better than the beach in Atlantic City which gives good flexibility to take bath and more cleaner. I was bit surprised that one has to pay some amount to get in to the beach which I never experienced in any beaches around the world. The board walk along the coastline is a must and there are numerous activities like shopping, gambling, games for kids along the board walk. Must see place on a sunny day.

US Open @Ashe Arthur Stadium


US open mainly attracted me because of Ashe Arthur Stadium with its scenic architecture, gigantic stands and its floodlights. Never really had a chance to watch live during my childhood days because of the time zone difference between India and US. It was really a long time dream to watch a match in Ashe Arthur Stadium at least once in my life time. The dream got satiated when I watched the match between 2001 US champion Australian L Hewitt and 2009 champion Argentinian J Del Potro in the second round in Ashe Arthur. The match was a tough fight between L Hewitt and J Del Potro as it lasted for four hours and went to five sets. Thanks to Krishna who motivated me to watch a match in Ashe Arthur Stadium even though it ended on costly affair: P Definitely an evening to remember.
