Then there was peace ... With pizza ! See we got something from fighting in Italy.
Watch out for the krauts & the nips.
Excellent place to visit for some forgotten history for adults as well as kids. Don't forget the Vietnam display across the way as well. - Todd A Williams
When this coast artillery fortification was built in 1942, it was 300 yards from the high tide line. - Jim Stephens
Cute, unexpected surprise. It's very small but a nice extra stop next to the light house, and has a few large snakes! - Ashley McGinn
Dig for Cape May Diamonds, beautiful place to go in the evening to watch the sunset, but get there early, it gets very crowded! - Tricia
Wonderful wild life preservation area, go for a short hike, views of the lighthouse are better from the beach anyway - Sofia Uz
Mid-tide is usually best for birding. Enjoy lots of Red-throated Loons in late winter/early spring. - Mark Garland
