Christmas in Atlantic City (Part 1)

Posted on 31 December 2009 by Sammy

The night of Christmas, James, his parents and I drove down to Atlantic City.

We spent a lot of time at the pool which was cool because it was really nice and warm in there and I could lounge around in a bikini, sipping on Mojitos. I loved this, because the warmth reminded me of Christmas at home in Australia!

James was trying to model a lot with his new Tiffany Atlas ring that I got him for Chrissy:

We also went later at night which was really really nice. I took a panorama:

James forgot his trunks, so we didn’t go swimming and just lounged around by the pool.. But I must say that we are still hawt.. Ha ha ha

The following photo is disappointingly blurry. I don’t have a steady hand :(

James said he looks like a stalker in that photo. Funny. Hahaha.

And here’s James playing around with the camera. He loves it. Cutes!

I had a really nice relaxing day together. <3 I really liked that JT did not go off and gamble even though we were in a casino hotel the whole day and spent the entire day with me.

Will write another post with more pics of my trip :)

Christmas Dinner 2009

Posted on 31 December 2009 by Sammy

Thursday arvo (Christmas Eve), I made by way to Toronto City Airport and took a Porter Flight over to New Jersey. Had a lovely dinner at James’ brother’s place (Ryan & Kim) with his family.

Had lots and lots of yummy sushi (thanks to Kim’s family). Also filled my stomach with lots of delicious turkey, ham & cranberry sauce. Kim makes the most delicious ham and cranberry sauce!

I didn’t take any photos of what Kim made but it was DELICIOUS. I only have sushi photos for some reason. I think I was too consumed by trying to get all the food in my mouth and down my belly that I didn’t even think to take photos.

There was also mini bite sized sushis for little Tyler. Cute!

360 Restaurant

Posted on 30 December 2009 by Sammy

One weekend I had the pleasure to have dinner at the 360 Restaurant at CN Tower which offers some of the best views of Toronto.  The restaurant revolves around so you can see a 360 view of Toronto while you’re having some magnificent food. Also at 351 metres (1151 ft.) high it is known to have highest wine cellar in the world. Very cool!

As I live down at Harbourfront, I am so closeby to the CN tower and see it everyday so was really excited about going up there! Actually, my bedroom looks out on the CN Tower so I see it lighted up every night before I go to bed.

In the month of December, the CN Tower has green & red lights. Very cute! I tried to capture its cuteness but it just isn’t the same as it is in person. It really lights up the whole city, I love the CN Tower!
