Here's mom by the trolley in front of the Absecon Light house (with the Revel in back).
The tour included lunch at the Irish Pub and a very nice souvenir book.
Special thanks to the concierge at the Wyndham Skyline for arranging to have us picked up in front!
After we were picked up we stopped at the Flagship and then Gardner's Basin
Mom and I took the "Roaring 20s Tour" from the Great American Trolley Company (see http://www.gatrolley.com )

Mom and I had the Minestrone Soup, cheese burger, and we both had diet pepsi.
After lunch I took a tour of the Inn upstairs. Nice porch, and view from porch:

Funny seeing the big TV amoung those antiques!

Formerly known as the The Ritz Carlton, this is where Nucky Thompson lived on the 9th floor.
(Note: I don't have cable TV and I haven't see the show, but HBO's Boardwalk Empire centers around nucky.
Our last stop was at the Chelsea Pub and Inn, which used to be a kosher inn
