Avalon in the fall

I%26#39;m going with some friends for a long weekend in Avalon in November. I am not familiar with this part of the shore and wonder if anyone can offer suggestions as to what there is to do this time of year? Looking for restaurant suggestions, grocery stores, nature,shopping. We%26#39;re not into the casinos or that scene; just a nice relaxing quiet weekend. Thanks.

Avalon in the fall

it will certainly be relaxing %26amp; quiet...Avalon is pretty laid back even in the summer. Only a handful of restaurants %26amp; other places will be open; I%26#39;d bring groceries, alcohol etc. with you (probably less expensive in Philly area). If you get bored, maybe do an evening trip to Cape May for a little nightlife and/or fine dining.

I think I recall that Johnny Carson used to tease Ed McMahon about vacationing in Avalon, the ';excitement capital of the east coast!';
