The Boardwalk Is Where?

I posted the previous post from a public computer at Norfolk's Main Library on Plume Street. Upon leaving, I started walking to the bus stop on Waterside Drive.

I was passing the post office when a car pulled up to ask directions, "What street is the Boardwalk on?" I must have given them one good look, because the lady then asked, "What street is Virginia Beach's Boardwalk on?" When I told them how far away it was, I was met with dead silence.

Boy, how can you get Downtown Norfolk and Waterside confused with the Virginia Beach Oceanfront.

For laughs: Why not just - correctly - answer "one block east of Altantic Ave"

You would be telling the truth...

Watch them go back and forward of Atlantic St acting doumb
