A Nice Valentine's Weekend...

This past weekend, Ang and I got to do something that we rarely get to do (thanks to a super clingy 8 yesr-old!).We snuck away with friends to Atlantic City for some much needed R&R (ok, R&R for me, and gambling for him!). This was my first trip to Atlantic City, and I must say that it was very fun..We stayed at Caesar's Palace which is right on the famous Boardwalk--if anyone watches HBO's Boardwalk Empire they definitely know what I am talking about. The hotel was amazing! One of the neatest things was that it was attached to a mall that was actually built on a pier..I have never seen anything like it. As you can imagine, the shops were top notch, especially since it was adjacent to a casino....think Tiffany's, Louis Vuitton, Burberry-hey, you've got to spend your mega winnings somehere, right??--We definitely did not fit in that caragory, though!

Here are just a few quick pics...

View form the mall...the sunshine is deceptive..it was freezing cold!




In the lobby before leaving...:(

We had a great time..there's nothing like time alone with your honey on Valentine's Day...:)

In addition to the trip, I got spoiled in other ways, too...a wonderful spa treatment while there and a new Pandora bracelet..I've been wanting one for quite a while..I can't wait to fill it with special charms..So far I have a suitcase (very fitting!) and a Murano heart bead.

  1. I have never been to Atlantic City, but have been to Vegas many times. My husband has conferences there every year. The Caesar's Palace AC looks a lot like the one in Vegas. I love my Pandora...... you are gonna love filling yours!
