We're staying at the Trump Marina, next to the Trump hotel and casino. There are lots of other Trump buildings here and on the Boardwalk. It's like Trump everything.
A little game of Monopoly, anyone? Here's Boardwalk, and we passed Park Place, Atlantic Avenue and Indiana Avenue on the way here. On the boardwalk, we bought the requisite Fralinger's Salt Water Taffy, made famous here. Remember the rootbeer flavored one that's white with a brown stripe? That's still my favorite.
Then we went into Caesar's casino. I didn't play blackjack because the cheapest table was a minimum of $25 per game, so we just played video poker. Kathy was up $10 at one point but eventually she lost her $10 and I lost $15, so we called it quits. I guess we could have saved time by losing that $25 on one game of blackjack.
Next to the boardwalk, of course, is miles of beach with a good surf. We were cruising off this beach and even though there were 3 ft. waves, it seemed like less because the waves were so far apart (like an 8 second period) that instead of bouncing, it's more like a ride uphill and then a ride back down.
