The Day After…

Hello morning…

Sherri and I had a wonderful day yesterday. We did not go anywhere…other than out for Thanksgiving dinner. We ate at the casino and had turkey dressing and all the other trimmings. We had a buy one get one free coupon which we used and got our dinner for $9.00 each!

Before we left for Thanksgiving dinner we took us a walk around the park to burn off calories…to make room for more.

When we got to the casino the line was almost to the door and my heart sunk…thinking that we may never get in to eat. I told Sherri to go on in to the casino and get on that machine that has won her all that money. I was hoping she would hit the jackpot again…if so we could grab a bite to eat somewhere else. Well…..

To my surprise the line went rather fast and Sherri’s machine was broken. She was waiting on the Tech to fix it but it looked hopeless so she came on over and got in line with me. Before we knew it we were paying for our dinner and were ushered to our table.

Dinner was so good and we were real good about not overeating. We got small portions and ate those and then ordered coffee and a small dessert.

When we finished we went to the casino floor to make our fortune…that never happened…but we did have fun and did not lose any money. We went to the atrium to see the alligators and take some pictures. We also checked out the movie to see what was playing there.

This is the atrium located between the casino and the hotel. Many of the rooms have balconies that overlook this area

The lobby is decorated for Christmas

There is a swamp in the center of the atrium and yes these are real!

Sherri said that this one had sinus problems?

They have a movie theater in the hotel.

We decided to rent some more movies at The Red Box at Wally World. We had already rented 3 there the day  before and this time we picked out 4. The movies we picked out were much better and we enjoyed them. It is really nice to set and entertain ourselves for such a little investment.

We ate leftovers and finished off the last movie and then made our way to bed. What a wonderful Thanksgiving day this has been. I hope that everyone had as good a time as we had. What more could you ask for…

$9.00 sounds like a deal for the Thanksgiving meal. We should take a page out of your book and exercise some 'portion control'.

Looks like a nice place there.

Looked like a great place for Thanksgiving - except for them alligators!
