I had thought about going to Cape May, but wasn't too sure about it. I was worried there would be no beef. I like some seafood, but dislike crab, lobster yes, barb no!

What a shame the server ruined the evening, Jen. Some just get so confused if you mix the DDP and paying oop.
You had a BUSY day and got so much done. I take my hat up to you for doing all that. We usually are just too tired to do so much.
How did the waitress charge a tip to the room without you pre-authorizing the exact amount to be charged for the tip? Was it an automatic 18% gratuity that she just decided to charge to the room?
Yep. Both times she has told us it has to be that much and has to be charged, which is not true. if she was good, I wold have no issues, but when you argue about a tip and how to pay for it you go down in my book REAL fast.
Wohoo, I finally caught up!
I just love reading your trip reports and all the pictures you put in! I really want to do the cruise now after reading your report
That's outrageous! I would have been just as upset as you. I wonder how many years she has been scamming this way. I never really like complaining about people, but this one I would have had to make.
Interesting to hear of your experience with Susan. We ate at Cape May earlier this month and also had issues with her regarding our bill. We are locals and use the Tables in Wonderland program. She seemed to have her own set of rules for dealing with that program, too! I may just decide to have a chat with Guest Services about my experience. It didn't seem like too big a deal at the time, but I'm seeing a pattern here.
I do want to say, Jen, that I'm really enjoying your trip report. I can't imagine how much time and effort you put into the reports you write. Your attention to detail is amazing! Thank you so much for sharing your trip with all of us.
I love the picture of Claire and Kadence together. Love Claire's mad hatter outfit.
Jen,
Loving the pictures. I had missed a few days worth, but I'm finally caught up. That's awesome you got to catch some of the Christmas festivities. We usually get to see them every other year as we usually head down the week of New Years. I'm with you though I love it at Christmas time, the lights, the decorations, and the parades/fireworks.
Also, sorry to hear about your dismal service at Cape May. I really want to try this restaurant because I LOVE seafood, but unfortuantely i'm the only one in the family out of 6 that feels that way! haha. Is there enough other stuff for the non-seafood lover?

Oh wow Jen! You had a full day of running around. I hate the stress of being late because of a bussing issue. Been there, done that for sure.
Your food looks good! I'm sorry the waitress had such issues though. That's a hassle when you are dealing with tired kids. Glad it finally was sorted out!

I love the Boardwalk area but hate when you just miss a boat.
Wow busy and crazy day but you got a lot done.
Sorry about the busses. Sometimes you get the best luck and other times you can't make a bus to save your life.
That fiasco at CM sounds awful. Sounds like a few people are having a similar issue. Sound like a call or email to Guest Services might be needed.
I've never had a problem with finding plenty of non seafood options at Cape May and I have seafood allergies. In fact, it's one of my favorite Disney restaurants! Hope you can talk the family into trying it. I did have my doubts about the non seafood options before my first meal there but was very happy with all the choices I did have. Most of the servers I've had there have been really good, too.
Jen, I'm still reading...just not posting much. I loved your last set of pictures at the Beach Club and the pool there. Can't wait to be there in a week.
