Our niece, Lisa,
came to visit her auntie and unkie in mid-October. When she arrived on
Tuesday, we quickly spirited her off to Atlantic City, where she'd never
been before. Here are a few pics of our road trip and on the boardwalk in
Atlantic City. We started off with lunch at the Phily diner in Runnymeade, NJ! |
|
|
|
Lisa and I
hungrily awaiting our order.
|
|
|
Bob's waiting,
too.
|
It was def worth
the wait!
|
|
|
|
I did manage to
get a couple pics of the Diner on the way back from AC. |
|
|
|
As soon as we
arrived in AC, we all took a walk along the boardwalk and got some
sand in our toes (well, we would have if we had taken off our shoes!) |
|
|
|
|
|
We had reserved
a suite for 2 nights at the Borgata, sharing it with Lisa, like we used to in
the "old days." Had a great time there, but we didn't come home
winners (except for Bob).
|
|
Left
-- Well, we've freshened up after checking in and it's time to get to it!!! Lisa's very
ready for some video poker!
|
|
|
|
And so is
Sharon!
|
|
|
One of our fave
spots - the Borgata video poker bar.
|
Ahhhhh,
cranberry vodka, a glass of water and an e-cig
chaser for Shar.
|
|
|
After a few good hits at the Borgata (pics below), and a lovely 2
days there with Lisa, we headed home to Chesapeake Beach.
|
Lisa and I find some
veg time on our deck after our return from AC.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The next
morning, Lisa rousted us for a 2-mile walk along our beautiful railway
nature trail. Crisp clear weather, ahhhh!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Next, a fishing
trip with Unkie on Captain Drew Payne's boat - The Worm. Perfect day for
their outing. And fish
were caught!!!!
|
|
|
Leaving the
harbor and Windward Key townhomes behind.
|
|
|
|
|
Always time for a
brewskie!
|
|
|
|
|
With the Captain!!
|
Lisa
sampling some Moonshine ...
|
|
|
|
|
Since Lisa is into
sushi, we took her to dinner at Sakura's where we met up with our
friends Conne and Bucky O'Dell and Karen and Bobby Sanders.
Our chef was awesome! So funny and creative.
|
|
|
Ahhhh, feeling
stuffed and happy -- but our socializing didn't stop there. We headed for a
nightcap at The Green Turtle.
|
|
|
After Sakura but
before Green Turtle. We were happy campers!!
|
Hard to sit on stools
after a drink or two - one happy group!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "girls." So . . .
after AC, and fishing, and a 2-mile walk, and dinner at Sakura with the
Sanders and O'Dells, and a nightcap to top off the evening, we took Lisa
to the airport the next day. On way to airport - did we tire you
out??
|
|
|
I can't finish this
narrative without mentioning that Lisa helped me clean out our garage and we ended up
making SIX trips to the dump!! Help like her is hard to find!! Gonna miss
her. Sniff sniff!!! Toodles, Lisa, until next time.
|
|
|
And . . . here as
promised, are some of our good hits while at the Borgata.
|
|
|
|
Bob hit it big in
Triple Double Bonus for $1,000!!!!!
