Day 18 - Tuesday

GrandWest Casino. This new resort has a very nice hotel with cozy lounges, and two private gaming floors for hotel guests. The hotel is attached to the main casino that includes 2 additional gaming areas, a number of restaurants, and a family area. The family area has ice skating, bowling, a movie theater, arcade, and kids amusement park. We checked in early and spent the day having fun. The boy enjoyed the family area while I introduced Tabi to my favorite pastime, gambling :) The machines are the same as in the states. From nickel slots to 1R machines. Tables are proportionally higher. Minimum is 25R. I guess I should mention the exchange rate: 1 Rand is about $0.12! We're getting spoiled by the relatively low cost of things here. Had a fun day and ended by watching Night at the Museum 2 in the theater. Slept well.
