Bally S Atlantic City

... br><br><br> <li>Wonder Bar (bad): so sad this one didn't work out... I was walking on the board walk and I knew it had to be around there somewhere, but I had no idea where exactly (it's not ON the boardwalk) and then all of the sudden I see Tillie's smiling face between two buildings. So beautiful; see:http://static.panoramio.com/photos/ original/15535.jpg.<br><br><br><br><br> <li>Welcome Bruce ...

... br>- My ankle is in perfect shape &#8211; my hips on the other hand are killing me.<br>- It&#8217;s now 21.30 / 9.30 pm but according to my laptop (still on Dutch time it&#8217;s 3.30 in the morning. Considering I woke up this morning around 4 (was suppose to stay asleep until 5.30 but no such luck) you can imagine I&#8217;m tired<br><br>Take care,<br><br>Liefs,<br><br>Maria

Senora Santillan in Peru has paid back some more of our loan. In a few months we'll have some more money for another loan. We still aren't able to replenish the money stolen by a Kiva field partner.<br><br>We still hope someone goes to jail (at leas) and made to repay.

... Italian restaurant a la Trump, we strolled along the boardwalk then went back to our room overlooking the ocean. Although we drove only 220 miles today, we travelled for 9 hours, and were tired. So, not finding anything exciting that appealed to us, we went to bed and got a good night&#8217;s sleep. That turned out to be one of our better decisions. Are we getting old? Or what? Read on!!<br>

... dollars in Trump's little empire with the glistening chandeliers, but I don't remember anymore. I won a pitiful amount, I think. Oh yes, the numbers in the fortune cookie sent me the promised "pennies from heaven." It was something over ten and under twenty box. But I envisioned an amount much more grand then that because heaven is not humble. The multi-card Keno had my spirit soar ...

... to the crown since about 2000 so the view you get is nothing remarkable. I think the main reason for doing this little trip would be to say that you had "ticked it off" as the security screening and queuing experience just overwhelms the potential for a good day. To explain this a little - you need to queue early in the a.m. to get a pass in to the statue, you then need to queue for entry onto the ferry which on any sort of fine day ...

... Manhattan is the main tourist one but i'm told there is loads to do and see on the others if you have the time. things to do when here: the empire states building is well worth the wait. so too is 5th avenue, time square (esp on Tuesdays 50% night for a show), central park. i did think there were a lot of similarities with London and i did not think there was much in it as to which was more exciting. the ...

... reminder that a large city looms around you. Hours drifted by as I sat and watched New Yorkers jogging or those being dragged along by large dogs. It is also surrounded by the major musuems. The Guggenheim: bit disappointing actually. The gradual curving/inclining gallery can leave you a little dizzy. Metropolitan: impressive collection and free! There are some ticket offices staged at the entrance that look like they mean business but it is entirely voluntary. Natural ...

... and stay put before we attempt to sail into the Atlantic Ocean. Since it will be our first experience with ocean sailing, I want to make sure it doesn't scare Margaret so badly that she flies home on the next available flight. The high winds mixed with rain have continued for three days. This is a nice marina with the business section of town within easy walking distance but one should never come here if strong winds out of the NW, N or NE are predicted ...
