5.26.12

Today has been great!  I am really getting to know this set of travelers and seeing their excitement over everything we do makes it that much more exciting for me.  We started out the morning in the casino.  Being there brought back memories of how much my grandma loved to gamble.  I even felt young when I got carded on the casino floor...lol.  And here I am stressing about how quickly I have gotten older.  After a bit there it was off to take some pictures and see the boardwalk before lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe.  Fact I did not know that I learned today was that Monopoly was designed from Atlantic City and every summer they make a huge Monopoly board in the streets around the casinos.  That should be fun to see.  After lunch we made our way back to the boardwalk for some shopping.  Everyone was so excited to get some souvenirs to take back home with them.  Tonight was the Legends show.  That was a lot of fun.  I am not sure what kind of accent the Adele singer was trying to have but she did not pull it off.  And I don't really that Adele or Justin Timberlake have really made the Legend name yet.  Elvis was suppose to be there but did not and Whitney Houston was a little disappointing as well.  But besides me being over critical of every singer it was a good time. 

The funny of the day would be when my co-worker sampled a salad.  She is an even more picky eater than me, which is really hard to do.  But the face she made was hilarious and she said it tasted like when you fall face first into a field...lol.  That has been determined to be our explanation for everything this summer...it's like when you fall face first into...

Overall, thus far, the experience has been great.  I am really happy that this opportunity came up and I am learning so much and getting to experience so much.  It is kind of strange being so cut off from the rest of the world for most of my days but I am also kind of enjoying it.  Of course there are things and people that I miss while I am here but I am trying to take everything in and enjoy all that comes with this summer.
