Stunning: Atlantic City

We planned a trip to Atlantic City during the Memorial day weekend. And we were there around 7 in the evening. This was our second trip to the casino city of the East and we were looking forward to having a great time again. We went to the beach, as it was just walking distance from 'Ceasers Casino'. The view was stunning- sun was going down, beautiful hues in the sky, sandy beach, kids playing with their little shovels, glittering casinos, loud music and everyone just splattering around in water. Nothing could be better.

And it was time for us also to get in the water. We had a great time running on the shore and facing the waves. Clicked some beautiful pictures too. Then we went to the open air cafe and enjoyed the live music, but couldn't find a place to sit, as it was over-crowded. So, we went to the Trump Rain forest Cafe, with awe-inspiring decor, this place was best for dinner. After the cafe, we went for a walk on the famous 'Broadwalk', which was built in 1870 to keep the sand away from the beach-front hotels. It now offers the most breathtaking sights, with shops, casinos lined on one side and the ocean on the other.

From there, we went to the Pier Shops at Ceasers, with shops and oceanfront balconies; which provide the most perfect views of ocean beyond. We clicked some unforgettable pictures and enjoyed sitting in a beach chair with our feet in the sand on the second floor of the Pier and with the view of glittering Atlantic city.

Now was the time to head towards the Casino, Got our cards done and yes!! time for some slot machines. We tried our luck, it worked only some times but as always we ended up loosing more. Well, as they say, Better luck next time...!!

Around 1:30, we again came out for a walk and the broad walk was still buzzing with people, singing and dancing. We headed towards the Bally's cafe, and it took us almost an hour to get our order done. While enjoying the cool breeze, we finished the food and went back in. Tried some more luck but to no avail.

Finally it was time to head back to New York, and no doubt, this trip became one of the most memorable ones. Must say, Stunning Atlantic City !!!
