Hey jblb: my grandfather used to live in Manahawkin a long time ago. As kids we stayed there and rented a house every summer in Surf City.

Okay to satrt with we live in Burlington NJ now, however I have over the past 30 years lived in Gloucester, Camden, Atlantic, Essex, Morris, Sussex, Warren and now Burlington counties. My DW is originally from Passaic County and we both graduated from State schools (Montclair State for me Ramapo College for her) and both attend Rutgers Camden (me for my law degree which I get in 10 days and her for her Masters degree). We are making our first Jersey week trip this year and staying at our home resort SSR (unless our waitlists come through [crossing fingers]).

LOL, I used to work in New ****ord! I think the house is by the light on New Bridge/Windsor Rd. --not the corner house but the one next to it

[starwood]

It's 141 New Bridge Road - right after Windsor Road. In the Twin Boro yesterday they had a big article about it. The family found out Thursday, they tore the house down Saturday and the family was sent to WDW. They are coming home tomorrow to see the new house. It is gorgeous - I would estimate it is now worth close to $1 million. The house they tore down was a small split level.

We had our HH vacation planned for April break and then found out they took 2 days away, after the school year started @@..but we were going anyway..then they got them back.
The principal actually said at the PA meeting when he told us that April break was now 3 days that he understood if we already had avaction scheduled and to sen him a postcard from WDW. LOL

It's between windsor and Greenwich. I live just a couple of blocks away so I have been popping down there, unfortunately my DD has been sick, so I haven't been down to see the finished product.
We were there when they tore it down and we went to the concert Sunday night. Pretty cool.
I'm hoping my kids are on TV! LOL

It's hard for me to see from my computer here at work (the colors on pictures are terrible on this computer) but I would say that's him. I'll let you know after I look from home.

That's awesome that you both own and vacation together. You have a good selection of resorts to choose from for the 11 month window too. :thumbsup2

Are you going to be on the DIS tonight? I should be in chat sometime tonight. It's cruise chat, but a bunch of DVCers will be there. I usually don't sign on until later (10-10:30) but if I can get my errands done before I may be there as early as 8PM, when it starts.

Just my interpretation, but I believe BCV to be more like Cape May and BWV to more like AC, Ocean City or even Wildwood. But you do live in Cape May County, so you would know better than just a weekender like me. :thumbsup2

Vicki,

I made it to chat but not until about 10:45. This week was quiet in chat when I was there. I only stayed about an hour.

When is your next trip to WDW? My parents and niece are coming July 13-18 and we'll be at WDW July 15-18. :teeth: Not sure where we're staying yet because I already banked all points from this year forward. Probably AKL if I can get a good AP/FL resident rate when the codes come out. Polynesian would be first choice but that's way more expensive than AKL.

Hi Jeff--we're going in December(8-16), Danny and his wife too.
We're staying at Pop the first night because we don't land until 11:40 pm. Dan & Teri(wife) are staying there too that same night, though they're flying in a little earlier.
Then Saturday morning we're moving over to BWV and Danny and Teri are going to the BCV.
I'm so psyched, we haven't been in December since my daughter was a baby, and Danny and Teri never have. Already bought our tickets to MVMCP. :cool1:

Lucky you getting those FL rates! Jim and I are trying to stay at every resort, I just need Poly, GF, YC(can you see the trend here, haven't stayed at the pricey ones LOL) and WL..oh and Pop.
Though I stayed at the BCV with my Mom so DH hasn't stayed there yet, but I'm sure we'll go together one day so he can check it off.

Vicki,

I haven't stayed at Pop yet. By the time it opened I owned DVC so there was no need. I may book that for the night before the cruise in October so I can put it on my "stayed there" list. The AP rates came out yesterday and no monorail resorts were included. YC, BC and BWI are $189 + tax and OKW and SSR are $159 + tax for studios. I booked BC for the pool and closeness to EC. There were no FL resident rates. Oh, and the rates are for 7/5 to 8/5 only.

Your December trip sounds like fun. Christmas at WDW is a sight to see, or so I here. I haven't been myself yet but will this year. I'm going to MVMCP on December 4th, then attending the condo meeting December 5th (BWV, 9AM). I plan on doing at least 1 more than that, maybe 2 more. The best part of your trip is that you do it as a family. It helps that both of you own too. Have a great time and let me know if you want to meet.

I'm not a DVC member, but I am staying in a Grand Villa with friends at OKW the last week in October, 2006. We have a grand gathering and are booking lots of neat stuff including MNSSHP, Lunch at Jiko special program, and GG fireworks cruise. We have a group of ex-disneyana folks that now book our own disneyana convention every two years. We have 20 to 30 in our group. Looking forwared to having a blast.

Jim,

I wouldn't worry too much about the crowds. I think the crowds have grown over the last few years, but it is not terrible. We were there last November and the standby wait for the more popular rides (Tower of Terror, Splash Mountain, Space Mountain) was around 30 minutes. The only exception was Soarin', which had extremely long wait times and the fast pass machines were emptied early, but the ride was very new. There were many rides and shows with very short wait times. Also, I was late making adr's and I didn't have any difficulty there either.

Live on the coast in Cape May county. Own at BWV (vacation at an interpretation of where we live :confused3 !!!) and SSR.

Lucky you! We own BWV as well, but the BCV's decor seem more like Cape May to me. I can't wait until July, when I'll be back in NJ!

Vicki,

I haven't stayed at Pop yet. By the time it opened I owned DVC so there was no need. I may book that for the night before the cruise in October so I can put it on my "stayed there" list. The AP rates came out yesterday and no monorail resorts were included. YC, BC and BWI are $189 + tax and OKW and SSR are $159 + tax for studios. I booked BC for the pool and closeness to EC. There were no FL resident rates. Oh, and the rates are for 7/5 to 8/5 only.

Your December trip sounds like fun. Christmas at WDW is a sight to see, or so I here. I haven't been myself yet but will this year. I'm going to MVMCP on December 4th, then attending the condo meeting December 5th (BWV, 9AM). I plan on doing at least 1 more than that, maybe 2 more. The best part of your trip is that you do it as a family. It helps that both of you own too. Have a great time and let me know if you want to meet.

Sorry it took a while to answer-I went to New Orleans for a few days.
Sure-meeting would be great!! I was telling Danny about this--such a small world. Which Jeff are you? There were 2 in your grade right? Give me the last initial and I can figure it out. LOL Pays to come from a small town.

About 1 yr ago we moved from Burlington to Westampton NJ.

We won't be there Jersey week because if your kids are in Catholic schools you do have off the same times - Jersey week is only for public schools.

My dd does have off tomorrow, Friday and Monday for Memorial Day/ Ascension Thursday.

Spkk - used to work in Mt Laurel, but now I am working in Pennsauken along the Cooper River.

[Maria395712]

Our other home is SSR (though we haven't stayed at SSR yet; we're staying at VB in July). Maybe we'll make it to SSR in January. We'd like to take our nephew for his first ever WDW trip. I think that's a very worthwhile enterprise! :thumbsup2

Hi Michelle,

Guess Doc Hog hasn't made his/her way on to this thread yet. I've seen posts from them recently. They should be on they are going in June!

I just learned how to post pictures so you were able to figure out which one of us this was. I haven't been on the DVC boards in a while, but I may start checking them more often.

Have a happy Memorial Day!!!

How was New Orleans? I haven't been watching all the DIS boards for about the last week so that's why I didn't answer you. I also caught a bit of a head cold this week. I am Jeff S. and there were three Jeff's in my grade. I am in New ****ord for the weekend, just got in about a half-hour ago. It's weird coming home for the first time after moving out.

I need rest, talk to you tomorrow,

We're moving to McGuire AFB in a few weeks and we'll be there for a two-year tour, however our legal residence is in FL.

I checked the school calendar for last year, and they got a Thurs, Fri, and Mon, off in November. Is that the "Jersey Week" everyone's always talking about?

[John VN]

I'm special, look at my TAG.

B&W's Heavy Crumb ROCKS

[starwood]

I just love B&W's crumb cake! I've heard that people come for miles just to get it.

[John VN]

We have a rule that anybody who comes down from NJ must bring some B&W HC if they want to visit us. Also required is when somebody makes a trip back north they must bring some back down. DFiL left 4 of them in NC at his stop over last time he came back down. He goes back up next month and this time we'll have a string around his finger and steering wheel.

Ahh, okay! Yes, I know who you are. :) I hope you have a good time this weekend-perfect weather, IMO anyway, love the heat!
New Orleans was FANTASTIC!! I went with 3 girlfriends, one of whom was a native of N.O.-now living in TX-so we were able to have her show us around.
The areas that were ruined by Katrina-that was so sad, still so awful there, but we saw lots of rebuilding and the French Quarter was alive and kicking. :thumbsup2

Yes that is Jersey Week for public schools. For us, my dd and this coming Sept, ds too go to Catholic school and they do not have off those days.

Welcome to the area, I live in Westampton which isn't too far from McGuire/Ft Dix.

WOW, can't believe this thread has grown to ten pages since I started it. To all those who live in Clifton, I will be eating in Rutts Hutt on June 6 on my way to Yankee Stadium, for the greatest hot dogs in the world. Hello to all. Since there so many of us, we should try and arrange a DIS day at Great Adventure. It is no Disney, but it might be fun. Keep posting.

We flew Airtran out of Philly last August when we came to WDW with good friends during the week Katrina hit. No problems on either end of the trip an the cost was arond $220 pp round trip. We flew Spirit out of AC Int'l twice before when we came down over the last 6 years - great little airport and can't say anything bad about Spirit. We'd use them again if the price was right - we're about midway between either airport.

We're located about 20 min north of you (we're in the northern part of McGuire's flight path). You also have the option of flying out of Newark. When we compared $$$ for this November's trip, Newark was cheaper by Philly by about $400 (there are 6 of us). AC's rates weren't out in December when we booked airfare, so we couldn't compare rates, but I didn't want to risk it.

Welcome to Jersey! :wave:

Yes, it is the small town right off the Walt Whitman Bridge from philly.

It is called Bellmawr Lake, and it is still here. As a matter of fact it just opened for the season. I haven't been there since I was a lttle girl, but I know a few people that still goes there.

Hey N Jersey here!!! Boonton, not as close to Disney as some of you S. Jersey people so we may start our next trip from your houses down south and knock 2 hours off our trip :rotfl2: !!! Hubby is from Ringwood and I am Secaucus( I can hear everyone saying it wrong-except those Hudson county people!) but we settled up here! We (or maybe me) hope to move home to Disney someday soon!!!!

LOL. Yes, people who live there put the accent in Secuacus on the first syllable, and everyone else puts it on the second.

I don't know who is correct. I'd be inclined to say that we should defer to the people who actually live there. However, there are many residents of Baltimore who pronounce their city "Bal-mer," so the locals can't always be trusted.

Maybe you guys could appreciate this. BCV coffee is soooo weak, needed a strong cup of coffee in the morning, so searched for expresso. No Starbucks on Disney property.


:thumbsup2

[ilovepooh]

Hello all!! A shoebie is what we call the tourists who swarm the Jersey shore, restaurants, malls, and most importantly the ROADS- every summer. ::yes:: They kind of take over and SOME are not very considerate of the people who actually live there.

DH told me the real story of the word shoebie. Years ago tourists came to Atlantic City with their lunch in a shoe box. That is apparently where the term comes from.

[bpmorley]

I spent alot of my childhood being a shoebie.

[jenntish]

We moved here about 1 1/2 years ago... and just bought into DVC in the last month (still haven't even gotten our paperwork yet!).

We will soon own 150 SSR points and 100 BCV! I don't know how to add the images though to my signature (and I thought I was pretty savvy when it came to the Internet!).

I'm a mom of a 2-year old Angel who works full-time in Advertising sales. It makes it very difficult to meet other moms because there isn't much free time!!! Maybe we can meet some new people through this Jersey thread. Hope to hear from you soon!
