Carroll Villa B&B Cape May

... as if we were to show up in the right town, but skip the show for Camfel. Furthermore, we came to Elaine prepared to help. We saw her need, got ice and went to her communicating that we cared and were prepared to help. How often as Christians do we appear in someone's life, not taking into consideration their circumkstance, and offer a solution that may not relate to their need? They need Christ, we know that, but I also think ...

... online. Somehow, I found the Travel Insider web site and the package featured several things that sounded appealing - discounts, add-ons, a great itinerary, and a cruise company that we had used before & enjoyed very much. I also spoke to the "host" - the Travel Insider himself - and found him to be pleasant, well-informed, and enthusiastic about the trip.

An auspicious start, I thought.

... could see was one tooth. I shouldn’t go on looks though as she was quite polite and interested in where we had come from and wanted to talk to us more before being called away. We ordered our lunch of broiled beef burgers which turned out to be surprisingly tasty when compared to the McDonalds equivalent but we found out what the meaning of upsizing was with the large drink more than enough for Cath and I both.

One more stop at a antique ...

Mom and I had a great time relaxing at the beach for a few days. We got in by about 1:30 or so on Sunday. We then had a lazy afternoon getting some food and exploring town a bit. Our inn provided afternoon tea everyday at 3:30. Got the best recipe ever for a new Peanut butter/Chocolate cookie I can't wait to try.

Monday we hit the beach all day and I definitely ...

We decided to make it a long day for the trip down Delaware Bay is kind of a wasteland for boaters. In fact, its kind of a nasty body of water. There is nothing much to see there short of the nuclear power plant....wow. There is a great deal of shipping with large ships coming out of Philly and tides provide serious current pro or con. In fact, it is essential that the cruiser plan for the current to avoid dropping SOGs in ...

Monday morning we said our goodbyes to Karen and Allen and set off across country to Cape May, at the southern tip of New Jersey, where we were meeting up with more friends - Ken from Boston and Diana from Cape Cod.

Despite the big distance Ken and Diana have to travel, we all arrived within 15 mins of each other at the little house we are renting -so we open a bottle of wine to celebrate before heading to the local supermarket to stock up on ingredients ...

... parking on the roadway'... It seemed my driver's side tires where partially on the blacktop (Heavens to mergatroid!). I was so discussed that I put the tickets aside and thought to send in the payment after getting home, since they convieniently put the address and stamp square that announces "The post office will not deliver without a stamp" (No ****!) on the neon red side of the ticket... I mean who carries their checkbook on vacation anyway? But a ...

... that exciting although we did get to stop and get Chipotle with one of my best friends Justin, who now lives in NC. When I realized that we were close to his town I called him up and we were surprisingly only a few minutes down the road. Leah was also interested in looking into graduate school so it was a convenient pit stop along the way. We arrived into Atlanta around 1 a.m. and happily crashed. The signs for a town called Kannapolis cracked me up everytime.

Labor Day. Three Day Weekend. NEW JERSEY SHORE. Woohoo! My parents drove down from Northern Jersey. Silke and I drove up from Washington, DC. The weather was perfect. It was a nice chance to relax in the sun and surf.

... by the shore -crab cake sandwich.It is a chain rest by the New Jersey shore. We drove to the Cape May Lighthouse.Nearby is a national park where you could watch birds and walk nature trails. Cape May is where thousand of birds pass in their seasonal migration. We went to Sunset beach and see the sunken concrete ship.This beach is where you could find Cape May ...
