Jersey Shore: Family Vacation Returns To Seaside Heights (And We're Getting Shades Of 2009)

Vegas (and its never-ending drama) has officially peaced out, so it was only natural that our faves from Family Vacation make a triumphant return to their old stomping grounds: The Jersey Shore, b*tch!


Back in Seaside Heights where it all started nearly a decade ago, the crew (minus one Ronnie and a certain sweetheart -- both ironic and completely unrelated) opted to retreat for several days at their old digs.


Cue a little bit flawless foreshadowing on the shore situation from Mike: "Gettin' each person back with each other at the shore home in Seaside, that could be nothing short of magic. It has been six years since the squad has been back, although I predict that it will be like not a day has passed, and we get right in our groove."


Truer words were never spoken -- at least not since the last time Pauly D reported the arrival of the cabs -- because we were instantly greeted with some serious 2009 déjà vu:

• 
  
  The Excitement Is (Still) Real
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Despite the absence of fist pumping, the cast literally couldn't wait to get back to the boardwalk. "I am so excited to go back to Seaside," mentioned JWOWW. "I haven't seen the residence in years."
  
  
  
  
  



• 
  
  Party's Heeeeere (Again)!
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Snooki's eternal greeting never. Gets. Old.
  
  
  
  
  



• 
  
  The MVP Is Back, Baby
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Back in 2009, Mike, Vinny and Pauly were the initial of the guys to arrive to the shore residence, leading Mike and Pauly to bunk with each other, while Vinny decided on the lone solo bed. "MVP is reunited in one room, and I love it," Mike declared.
  
  
  
  
  



• 
  
  The Drinks Continued To Pour
  
  
  
  
  
  
  While this time was much less "let's take shots!" And more "let's have a glass of wine," both the liquor and the shore residence memories were flowin'.
  
  
  
  
  



• 
  
  Consistency In Shore Décor
  
  
  
  
  
  
  From the wood paneling to the leopard-print bedspreads to that duck phone, the furniture and décor of the shore residence seriously hasn't changed an iota.
  
  
  
  
  



• 
  
  The Squabbling Will probably Never End
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Geographical changes have got nothing on this close-knit family's fights. Be it Italy, Miami or Jersey, the bickering is quick to follow... Especially if Angelina's around.
  
  
  
  
  

There's more feuding where that came from -- watch the Jersey Shore: Family member Vacation Part 2 madness go down next Jerzday Thursday at 8/7c.
