Today is a perfect weather day. It is a day to get out of the house, hotel or bed and breakfast and just stroll around town.
One of the mainstays of a stroll in Cape May is the Washington Street Mall. The mall is filled with shops, food, fudge shops and bars. The Washington Street Mall has been recently renovated and now offers ample seating and beautiful fountains.
Today the mall area had an additional attraction at the Cape May Gazebo grounds. There was a Micro-car show. If any of you were fans of Disney’s Herbie goes Bananas then this is close. The vehicle were not beetles but a wee bit smaller and very cute. It was an unexpected treat on a beautiful day in Cape May.

In Cape May we have visitors in every season: spring, summer, fall, and winter. Each season is unique and offer guest a variety of activities. At the Bacchus Inn Bed and Breakfast guest rave about the variety of options away from the beach. In fall the birds are migrating, the leaves are changing color, the wine grapes are being harvested, and the days are shortening and cooling. In the cool weather the beaches are less crowded and the visitors turn to alternatives to enjoy their time away. One great fall attraction for the young and the young at heart is the Cape May Zoo.
The Cape May Zoo is located just a few minutes from Cape May just off the Garden State Parkway a left at Crest Haven Road. Admission to the Cape May Zoo is free but a donation is requested at the entrance. The Zoo covers a large area and the larger animals have room to roam. There are lions, tigers, and bears of course. There are two new attractions as well. The baby Snow Leopards were born in the spring. They live in their mother’s enclosure and are very cute. The other attraction will be leaving this fall. It is a Cambodian crocodile. He is currently living in the alligators winter indoor enclosure. He will be sent home when the temperatures fall and the alligators are forced indoors. There is plenty to see at the Cape May Zoo from the small snowy white owl to large snow leopard with cubs. Visitors will get their exercise visiting all the enclosures. Scooters are available for elderly visitors that find the larger area too challenging.
The animals are not the only attraction. There is also a park surrounding the Cape May Zoo. The park offers grills, covered seating areas and open seating over an extensive area . Kids have a choice of parks that offer slides, swings, tubes, and learning boards.
As the weather cools to a pleasant strolling temperature the Cape May Zoo is a great outdoor day. One of our repeat guests at the Bacchus Inn bed and breakfast, Jim and Marge, make it a point to visit Cape May and the Zoo each fall. Maybe you should visit this fall too!

As an innkeeper we get to share some wonderful life experiences with our guests. This week it was the marriage of Sterling and Wendy. The couple had a simple civil ceremony performed by the mayor at city hall then an inmate meal at the Washington Inn restaurant.
The couple wanted a simple affair and stole away a couple nights in Cape May to exchange vows. The plan was casually mentioned during breakfast and the other guests at the table were happy for the couple and offered their congratulations. That evening after vows and dinner the other B&B guests celebrated on the porch of The Bacchus Inn Bed and Breakfast with the newly wed couple with wine and cake. The wine was flowing as smoothly as the conversation and soon all the guests who started the day as strangers ended the day as new friends.
This is just one of many special experiences we get to share with guests at the inn. We see people here for engagements, weddings, honeymoons, anniversaries, and reunions – some of the life’s most special moments and we get it all here at The Bacchus Inn Bed and Breakfast. It really is the best part of being an innkeeper.
