In what will surely become a tradition, the first gambling of the trip turned out to be nowhere near Las Vegas. We stopped in Barstow for a toilet break and to play some scratchcards from the California State Lottery.
Last summer I noted what a great selection of scratchcards these were and how – in the manner of a primary school football match report – even though we lost, we all enjoyed the game.
This time we picked ten dollars of random cards and ended up with an awesome break even result.
It managed to keep us in suspense right to the end – the very last card I scratched had a $10 prize.
I know in the picture I could have scratched off any letters – you will just have to trust me.
hopefully it points to a profitable holiday! In berlin atm the moment very nice city, not many comps though
