We found ourselves planning this weekend two weeks ago. I don't gamble but enjoy the sights and sounds of Atlantic City. From its boardwalk, pier carnival, overly aggressive seagulls and bright lights! But one thing I enjoy the most is the peace and quite I get while sleeping inside a hotel room when everybody else goes out to gamble.
The first agenda to the weekend was to spend it at the carnival. Everybody went on the Crazy Mouse, some did the Disco Ball, and the two fearless (Cary and Marianne) did the Slingshot. The gambling started when everybody thought that they could shoot the ball through the hoop. I'm guessing around $75 was spent just for that single game.
After the carnival, everybody went for the Karaoke Night sponsored by the Wyndham Hotel. Free beer, so everybody went. I guess we were the life of the party. People started to request songs for us to sing. Let me just make it clear, the us means everybody else except me. I don't sing, sorry. But we, yep, including me, danced to the Electric Slide.
After karaoke, we decided to continue the party over the local bar, AC Bar and Lobster. We got two rounds of drinks while the other half watched the baseball game and the other half saw the boxing game. Pacquio won by the way.
Sunday, after church, everybody had their plans. Shopping. Sun bathing. Casino. I stayed in the room and slept. When everybody got back from their thing, they decided to treat the kids to Sundae Social. Marianne and I decided to skip it. Too much eating for the weekend for me.
Left AC around 8:30 an got home around 11pm.
