Atlantic City to Delaware

 Sunday, Sept. 26

We woke up in Abescon, NJ and saw this sight: Atlantic City.

Notice the windmills!

We decided to drive down to the boardwalk to eat breakfast. We ended up at the Sugar Factory, which is located in the Hard Rock casino and hotel (formerly Trump Taj Mahal). Did you know the Florida Seminole Tribe owns the Hard Rock brand? I didn't.

They actually serve a pretty decent breakfast. This was $14.

I watched a video of some celebrities who have visited the Sugar Factory.
Anyone recognize this guy?                            Is this Selena Gomez?

Jamie Foxx (I recognized him)                        Mariah Carey.

We walked through the Hard Rock Casino for a bit (actually looking for a restroom)




Then we took a walk along the boardwalk.


The boardwalk is 6 miles long.

The beach.

The Steel Pier
Ocean Hotel and Casino

We walked down to where we could see the Absecon Lighthouse. What a surprise!!



Tucked away between other buildings

Ocean had an interesting reflection .

We then headed south, where there were a lot of souvenir and kitschy shops.

No casinos along this stretch.

Alex and I visited one of these in NYC and found it
surprisingly interesting and interactive.

So we ended our visit (having bought some salt water taffy) and headed to Delaware.

And here we cross the bridge into Delaware.

Tomorrow we hope to visit a friend and see a little of Wilmington and the University of Delaware.

Just like the scene from Wayne's World, "Hi! We're in ... Delaware." Ha ha! And I'm ashamed to know this but the girl in the top right picture from Sugar Factory is Kylie Jenner. The man in the top left picture almost looks like Chris Evans, although I don't believe that is him.
