Recommendations for Lodgings My wife and I are planning a short trip to Cape May in June.
Has anyone had an amazing experience at a B&B or at a private beach house?...

The [Montreal](http://www.montrealbeachresort.com/) is a great place to stay. They are hosting some things to celebrate their 50 th year. Great ocean front views and they have a restaurant and liquor store right there. I'd also recommend [Congress Hall](http://www.caperesorts.com/hotels/capemay/congresshall/). They too are celebrating an anniversary. It's their bicentennial! They also have a restaurant attached and I have to say their hospitality is top notch. I am not that familiar with B&Bs but I've read good things about [The Queen Victoria](http://www.queenvictoria.com/).

Try [Hotel Alcott](http://www.hotelalcott.com) if you want the Victorian vibe. Congress is overpriced [they'll charge $700 for a small one-room area per night]. Or if you're looking for something a bit more modernized, try the [Ocean Club Hotel](http://www.capemayoceanclubhotel.com). It's very south-beach style and they always have live entertainment there. It's the only modern 'boutique' hotel in Cape May. The Montreal is priced better but it's worn down. The Ocean Club is just steps away from the Montreal so the liquor store is still easily accessible. Also, the Ocean Club I believe is the tallest hotel in Cape May, so booking their top floor ensures that you will have the best view of the ocean.
Does anyone know where to find recordings of Tisha B'Av Nusach? Every year at Tisha B'Av maariv, my friend leads with a particular nusach that she learned from someone...

Is it the tune of Eichah?

The only comprehensive free online nusach site that I have found is [virtualcantor](http://www.virtualcantor.com/). I'll admit I don't really love the site in general that much, nor does it have Tisha B'av nusach, but it does have Eicha (with two different recordings of Chapter 3 and Keili Tzion) and a lot of other things throughout the year.

In my community, Tisha B'Av nusakh was a lack of all melody until minkha.
