On Thursday, we packed it in.
The morning found us trailing Andrew Zimmern to La Bombanera, a local's favorite pastry shop for Mallorcas, a Spanish sort-of soft yeast roll, filled with jamon y queso and jugo de acerola, a tropical fruit, freshly squeezed ($14.50 total).
We made our way over to the Coliseo to watch the Boilers pull out a heart-stopper (2 tickets were $29.56, because Old Man Fein gets a Senior discount). We sat with reserve 2 guard Terone Johnson's family and I made buddis with his Grandma, Wilma.
Next, we took th long way to Hipodromo Cameraro to watch horse racing. We bet $14 total on 9,2, and 3, boxed, for a Trifecta, and a Win/Place.
We lost.
Famished, headed to Pinones to eat at aroad side stand, where we munched on Cuedo Parrillada skewer and a ceviche of Cocha del Rey ($11.34).
Still hungry, we dined at Marisqueria Atlantico, drank wine, and ate Pulpo Churrasco y Mariscos Parrillada ($43.50 total).
A quick pit stop at the condo, and then off to the casinos for a small night of gambling. Verno walked off the blackjack tables after 2+ hrs with a rake of $45.
I broke even with him, and while waiting to play Hold 'em (never made it on), I won $65 playing roulette. Hit. 35 to 1 bet on the number 16, bet for the birth date of this blog's owner, Justina Bursonida.
A full day, indeed!
