LOVE Cape May! We live within two hours of this town, and spent our first ten wedding anniversaries (in December!) in Cape May, trying a different B&B every time. NEVER a complain! i even took my daughter there for a Mom & Daughter weekend when she turned 6 (in July) and we found some story hour type activities for kids. Really enjoyed every trip we've ever taken to Cape May, NJ.
You definitely need to go back. Cape May has so many fantastic spots both on and off the island. The Coast Guard Training Base is there and the Schooner at The Lobster House. Enjoy!
You should've walked the Historic Wildwood boardwalk. It's a site to behold, especially in season! It starts in North Wildwood and ends at the beginning of Wildwood Crest... over 2.5 miles each way! 🤗
Cream of Crab soup at the Lobster House raw bar is out of this world! 😋
That was a nice glimpse of Cape May. I’m about 25 miles north of Cape May. We go down at Christmas time. There are home tours, old fashioned carolers, every store is open on Washington Ave. It’s really beautiful. Enjoy Philly.
Seen a lot of copper gutters on churches in my roofing days.
Cool place, I could smell the money in that town.
You are now officially SHOOBIES! Historically, Philadelphians would travel to the shore for the day. They'd bring their lunch in a shoebox.
Now all tourists are Shoobies. Welcome to the club of many. 🙂
😂 We drove 20 minutes to a hiking trail with our dog, then realized we left the leash at home . Zeus is a large dog, so we went home for the leash, then back to the trail.
We went to cape May every year in aug when we lived in NJ . We loved it always no matter how many times.
We just spent 3 weeks in Maine and loved lobster rolls but we never found one for less than $20. We learned (after 2 and a half weeks) that the local grocery store sold live lobster for $7.99 a pound and they would cook it for you for that price. Our first purchase was 3 lobsters which provided enough meat for 2 lobster meals and 4 lobster rolls. We then went back and bought 6 more that we broke down are now in our freezer. Love lobster.
Residents can't really visit cape may anymore. Too many visitors and impossible to find parking. We used to enjoy off season, but now people visit ALL year!! Glad you enjoyed, bc those of us who live here can't anymore.
Next time stay in Delaware for a few days and visit the beaches. Don't be afraid to take the ferry from Lewes, DE over to Cape May.
Thank you for taking us to Cape May, I spent many summers there with my Grandmother and Grandfather. Many beautiful memories of decades long ago. 💕💕💕
Thank you for taking us along. Another wonderful video.
Definitely buy a pet stroller , one with the mesh zip to keep the dogs inside. That way you can take the dogs anywhere.
Another great video! My wife and I love watching yall. Aaron looks like our oldest son Joseph whose middle name is Aaron and coincidentally they both have very similar personalities (plain spoken, down to earth, thoughtful, logical, and caring). So obviously we love watching Aaron. As much as we like Aaron, we both love Chris. My wife thinks you are beautiful (I do too) and just have the best personality. Chris just comes off as someone you want to know and be around.
P.s. we have shared our toothbrush several times when one of us forgot to pack one. 😊
Thanks guys! Appreciate you watching and your kind words. It's always interesting how we can see certain people remind us of others!
I hope you stopped at Sunset Beach to see the Concrete Ship ruins just off shore. Bonus if you stay until sunset and watch the ceremony of the lowering of the US flag.
Yes trip to see ww1 ship would be good and don't forget the capemay diamonds. As a child I had to look up at the big ship. Now not much to see of the ship at low tide. Yours truly Evans w Robinson ret sgt
That ship is now on it's last legs thanks to many storms in recent years. Barely anything higher than 10' sticking out of the water now and only about 20' long. It will probably be gone by 2030 but a great relic from WWII's ingenuity.
What a beautiful area. Cape May is on our bucket list for next year. Copper gutters were a sign of wealth. If you ever visit Biltmore estate you will find copper gutters and downspouts, but they have a patina.
Great video! Since we living in OCNJ for the next 45 days we will probably take a trip to Cape May thanks to you!!!😊
Oh yes! You're not too far away! It really is a quaint town with lots to do and see! 😊
Great info folks. Much appreciated. ❤ very resourceful. I feel the discombobulation…I’m glad you show how things can go awry but you keep your cool and you PREVAILED!! 🎉
I spent a week at the boardwalk every year in wildwood for many years
We go down to Cape May twice a year from Northern N.J. We just booked 4 nights for first week in Oct right where you filmed most of this video. We just love it here and it's a great get away from the congested north. The summer crowds are gone but most of the restaurants and shops are sill open when we go there. Prices, as everywhere else have gone sky high so it's not cheap anymore. FYI there's a great pet store in the little mall that is offset from the main Jackson St. walking mall, right where the horse drawn carriage stop is. Its in the back so you have to look hard but they've got amazing things for pets (mostly dogs). We go to the zoo, along Delaware Bay to surf fish, down to Diamond Beach, and a myriad of other things to do to pass the time. There's even a great military showcase at the Cape May Airport with lots of equipment from WWII and Vietnam. Well worth the visit.
Oldest seashore resort in US. Love the town. Lived there 18 years on Missouri Ave.
Also willow creek vineyard and beach plum farm are beautiful and amazing!
I love the rain as long as it’s not a downpour and cool but not too cold. I like cooking outside so too much rain and wind isn’t good, but we can’t control mother nature. 👍 Love your videos guys.
Loved the scenery and houses
Our dog is so nuts she tends to take our excursions and change them in to headaches. We “tag team” a lot of places with her - it semi-works. Coastal towns are so fun!
My mom grew up in Philadelphia and they always went to Wildwood for the summer my aunt and all my seven cousins live down there they used to make fun of me my accent from California love also I didn’t realize your videos were so far back. I wonder where you’re traveling now look forward to seeing your future videos, sending you positive energy. Looking at your website maybe help me get my weight under control and improve my shape. Thank you for all your tips and information. Hope to see you on the road someday sending you positive energy from Malibu, California surf zeros.🙏🏼❤️🤙🏼
Thanks, Mark! I read that a lot of people Philadelphia area had summer vacations in that area! We usually aren't this far behind, but our fast-paced travel up the East Coast took us to a lot of places and we're working to get the videos out. 😊 Thanks for the positive vibes!
At first I felt foolish for watching videos from places I'd actually been in person -- I thought it was old age nostalgia. Well it might be some of that but this video was all the more fun because a lot of it was familiar. I remember that pedestrian mall perfectly, and the clock on a green pedestal caught my eye in person before I saw it in the video. I agree with the other person who wrote that NJ doesn't have a lobster fishery locally, so it tastes better further north. While I won't try to phonetically spell out the Maine accent, it's also well known that "you can't get a decent clam chowder south of New Haven." Or Boston, or several other places in New England depending on the prejudices of whoever is saying it. But Cape May has lots of good restaurants as well as the historic inns, often magnificently restored, where you can stay, although they are rather pricey so I preferred just a few days at a time. Of course that's not applicable for RVers.
Just noting that the first thing you did on your way to Cape May was to actually take "Exit 0", which puts you on Rt. 9 towards North Cape May, the ferry, and other points north and west, but not Cape May. Clearly you figured that out because you made it into town. "Exit 0" has become an affectionate and unofficial term for Cape May, though it isn't really exit 0.
I agree with Chris about the soup and the toothbrush.
Too bad you couldn't take the Lewes-Cape May ferry. It's a beautiful sail across Delaware Bay. Used to do a lot of fishing in the Delaware Bay.
the cotton company building you showed used to be my drugstore.
A lot of New Jersey beach towns have no dogs on beach rules during beach season. But some have dog beaches which is nice
It’s interesting…. As we travel the country…. Which parts and areas allow dogs and which don’t. I mean I understand why, as some people don’t pick up after their pets. But it’s such a bummer when we see no dogs signs!
In NJ, especially State Park land, dogs are NOT allowed this time of the year simply because of the beach nesting birds such as the Piping Plover.
Wildwood has a great dog park right on the beach! Plus they have dog beaches where you and your pups can have an amazing day!
about 600 victorian buildings in cape may. they city is historic district.
I saw the date. We’re you guys at Oregon Inlet at the end of April? We were there camping and saw a rig and truck that looked like yours.
When we had dogs, we kept spare leashes in our truck.
Carry a extra set of leashes in your truck and one set in the camper then you don’t have to worry about forgetting them and the kids get a great walk. Just an idea😊
I watched this whole video. Honestly, it just doesn’t have the same draw and excitement as the videos you guys made in the van.
Love cape may!
Ahhh... The pups are so precious! 💗💗 Enjoy yourselves and be careful... :)
Best video so far and you know why! 🐶 ❤ And that pose at the end!! Louie is the CUTEST!!!
definitely enjoy that part of the world. Will be back again too. I am enjoying your trip up the East Coast. Continued safe travels.
When in New Brunswick, Canada you should try the lobster rolls at Alma Lobster Shack about a 20 miles from Hopewell Rocks.
Wildwood is like the only free beach that’s the one that always floods and gets the storms. They have the longest beaches I mean just to get to the ocean it’s a trek.
There is the county bike path right behind the campground. Lots of deer and wild turkey.
We used to stay in Wildwood or Cape May all summer when I was a child. It was a very different place back then. We call a wooden board walk that is along a shore or beach a “boardwalk.” I wonder is that what you call a “promenade? “
Late fall , best time to visit , or in the snow . At night .
Wow nice memories, I used to go to Cape May, Wildwood, and Ocean City during the summer time specially Cape May, is such a beautiful town, enjoy and stay safe. By the way the doggiescare beautiful....
Great video! Was just in Cape May today ! Love it so much had to buy a vacation home there. Spend a lot of time in off season with our dogs. Higbee Beach and Sunset Beach are dog friendly.
I 🤣when I first saw Chris bundled up. Lobster rolls looked fabulous. My husband (30 yrs) wants to share all food! Lobster rolls, fish sandwiches. Main dishes, sides; all of it ❤
Going to do the next group challenge. Who doesn’t want to eat like y’all and be healthy❣️
Just have to say , when sharing food at a restaurant , my wife and I always shared the soup , alternating spoonfuls .
Anytime you have a Basenji or two, you are automatically going to get attention.. What kind of dogs are they? leads to a loooonnnng conversation! Love your channel.
I forsee a couple of Amazon leashes to stow under the truck seat in the very near future.... Kinda like a spare key for the truck stuck somewhere you can access it when you lock your keys inside
Not a bad idea! 😊
@@IreneIronTravels And a spare roll of doggy dirt bags....!!
Welcome to New Jersey. Shame you couldn't head north for some of the best Italian food on the planet.
Like that you bring your dogs. We found the same thing with people interaction. Looking forward to lobster rolls. I have leases in the truck as well as on the RV. Because if i didn't I would forget. This also includes the dogie bags. We use dog strollers with them as well. Allows us to go into some places normally restricted for dogs. Our first rescue boston went with us to Jeronimo park in South Dakota because we had her in a stroller. She loved it. She was the princes as she strolled around.
real NE clam chowder the spoon should stand up on its own.
Oh……I want to go to Cape May!
Yes Chris, we want our Chowda to be thick and creamy in the New England Way!
The Depot is a nice RV spot just a short bike ride from Cape May beach and downtown.
Cape May is a gorgeous town good restaurants, good shops
I'm sure by now you have arrived in New England and have found it to be very warm. This year's weather and temperature s are breaking records. Save travels.
Yes! Its warmed up nicely!
Big fan of the warm lobster with just butter. Overall I prefer Dungeness crab as I’m a Pacific NW girl but when in the upper east coast we partake in the lobster roll off too. 😎 With you on needing the thick chowder. Have fun!
Loved the leash improvisation.
Haven’t been there in eons. Time for a trip.
Cousins Lobster, I think out of Maine, also has a food truck out of Cincinnati, Ohio, that serves Ohio Cities, it has lobster rolls for $21.45 (claw lobster is most of the filling) the chowder is also very good at $10.00 a cup!
Never camped in wildwood but I take my family there to vacation and it's loads of fun lots to do great board walk
You all are just to cute. Love how rv folks can make almost anything happen when against the wall. 😏🤜. Love ur dog's.
Thanks ✌️☺️.
Thanks! Yes, gotta be resourceful! 🤣
That bite is bound to sell a lot of lobster 🦞 rolls. What a beautiful day and location. Thank you for sharing.
Such a neat place. Glad you went so you don't have any regrets.
No regrets! 🤣
Cape May point is where it's at!!
Saw you guys on the Battle Born ad. Pretty cool. Safe travels. Jeff
How far east coast are you going? NS Canada? If so check out BurntCoat Provincial Park. A bit of drive to get to it (you can’t camp here) but minimal crowds and you must go at low tide and sunset. Dogs are allowed and the experience you practically have to yourselves and your dogs. We explored all over and our pup enjoyed it too. One of our favs in NS (it’s a hidden gem). And no problem finding a parking spot for your truck
Oh yum 😋! If I went there Id never leave. Love me some lobster! 🦞🦞🦞😊
Every time I go to Cape May, the first thing I do is get a lobster roll at Quincy's!
Loving your East Coast travels. We live very close to Swanton...Ohio lol❤
I always share everything with my luv. 😊
Very good tour thank you. Things change when i was younger many old people on rocking chairs. No more
Alsolarge ww2 hospital i recall the Christian admirial carl McIntyre group no longer there. Henry ford had a race lost he and ford to Detroit. Yours truly Evans w Robinson ret sgt
Soup is definitely shareable, lobster rolls looked delicious! Very nice video!
Your lobster rolls looked amazing! Loved Chris’s big bite😁 it fit the sandwich. Dainty bites are too lackluster.
They have them all over the New Jersey beaches now there for the handicapped and anybody
If you guys like clam chowder, you need to try Robert’s Grill in Kittery, Maine. Hands down THE best clam chowder I have ever had!
First comment is you went in back way ( west cape May) should have went straight at end of parkwa😮y.
Buy a pet stroller, you can take dogs anywhere as long as they are in a stroller.
Warm lobster rolls are our favorites as well. Have fun!
I’ve gone to the Jersey shore my whole life. I live outside of Philadelphia. Been to Cape May several times. In fact, I’m attending a wedding there in September. I will say I never heard the word Promenade pronounced that way. We’ve always pronounced as Proma-nod and not Proma-nade. Now, I’m questioning my whole life at 60 years of age. I need to investigate this further. That said, your dogs are very cute. Keep up the good work BTW! Full confession. I never slept in a camper and/or mobile home.
Hello! Here is an interesting quick video on the different pronunciation of the word promenade between French, British English, and American English. 😊 Thanks for watching, appreciate it! 👍
Born & raised in NJ & retiring here... Our entire family says promenade not prominod. 😊
I just discovered you channel.
Enjoyed your exploring familiar areas. Like the Bay Bridge Tunnel
Lobster Roll prices are only doing to go up. Wait till you get to Maine - they are great but pricey. Best place I found for Lobster rolls is from the General Store going out to Ocean Beach beyond Boothbay Harbor. If you get there enjoy. Interesting as many times as I have gone to Cape May, I have never thought about getting a Lobster Roll.
Delaware also does not allow dogs "on season". I have mixed feelings about it, as I'd love to take my dog with me - but also realize that many people are not responsible enough to keep their dogs in line or clean up after them.
I told ya about the doggie sitch when you got the first one! LOL Your life will revolve around them, not your experiences..
You should keep leases in the car and leashes in the trailer
You guys should take the Cape May ferryyou can take it to the other beaches
I think you would have to see the beaches in the summer to understand the no dog policy. Our population explodes. There can be thousands of people stretched down the beach. I don’t think the locals even give it much thought as they are unlikely to want to navigate a bunch of tourists on the beach with their dogs. The only mention of the policy is usually by visitors. Our beach for example only limits it during certain hours and only during the summer. I have no issue with it. Everyone’s dog is well behaved, until it’s not. Same as their kids. 😅
I live in North cape may. I hate the policy. I feel like my dog is banned from beach walks half of the year. Can only take her there after 4pm.
At Halloween time the house I’ll get decorated, and they open up for tours
You missed so many other sites in and around Cape May. After hanging out in and around the Cape May area for the last 45+ years I can tell you in a day you only see 5% of the interesting sites and landmarks in and around the town. Next visit hit the marina district, the Lobster House, the point, see the concrete ship before it is gone, stop by and walk sunset beach, t(e Coast Guard station is there and you can sign up for a tour of that, run over to the Cape May Lewis Ferry, many historic buildings in town. I could go on and on since my one sister has lived down there for over @38 years over in West Cape May and my other sister has owned a condo at the north end of the city for about 255 years. So many cool things that would take a few weeks to see and experience.
Maybe next trip…….
if you get up to Philly make sure to stop at Valley Forge and swing by the King of Prussia shopping complex. Campgrounds are not to easy to find around the city but French Creek State park does have sights.
Love this trip! Did y'all ever say what happened back on Okracoke with the Sherriff?❤🙏Jane from SC. Stay safe!😊
Hey Welcome to NJ!!! You are super close to us!
Thanks! We loved our time in New Jersey!
As you know, you only scratched the surface of this area. I am sorry you did not take the trolly rides. There are 2 or 3 different ones and all 3 are a must to learn about the area and the interesting people that made it.
Don & Honey
Yes short trip for us....but there is always next time! Thanks for watching guys!
Wow I live near cape May, never heard about these lobster rolls,probably because most of us can't afford that.
My wife is allergic, but when we go East I want to try Lobster Rolls.
Soups? Yes. Toothbrushes? Well....😁
