What’s Going on Rehoboth Beach?, Lots and Lots, Activities, Events, Delaware Beaches…This Week-End

I have to share this with you.  If you have fed the parking meters at the Delaware Beaches, you know what I will be talking about.  I went to get a pizza from Louie’s.  Right there on Rehoboth Avenue.  The older gentleman kept feeding his meter and then he said “Now I don’t have money for ice cream”.  It is so true.  The meters are out of control.  You get 10 minutes for each quarter.  Unreal.  Right on Rehoboth Avenue you will find change machines, though. 

Actually, the pizza from Louie’s was pretty good.  I think I prefer the smaller size.  Then, they can get it crispy; well done.

This is the height of the season.  There is so much traffic.  If you are here only for the week-end then you will probably have to make lines at restaurants.  I suggest go very early or later in the evening after the rush.

You might find some of these activities and events interesting.  Here is what you will find out this week-end in Rehoboth Beach.
