    Visit a Zoo

    Of course the zoo that first comes to mind for me is that Cape May Zoo. My wife and I would be exhausted after spending a day at the zoo.

    My boys would be fast asleep as soon as they got in the car after spending the day walking and running around on of the best zoos in the entire state!
