While Hurricane Sandy passed by, I decided it was a good time to do some organization of my files. While working through various drawers, cabinets, and boxes, I discovered a few trinkets. One of them was this casino chip from the Hyatt in Aruba.
$1 chip from the Hyatt in Aruba.
This chip has to be about 10 years old. I haven’t gambled in a casino for that many years. Not sure why I saved it, probably as a reminder that casinos aren’t built by the winners. Hey, good luck!
…are up, or down? I can’t remember. However, I did find this casino chip from the Casablanca Casino in Aruba while sorting through some old travel memorabilia. The Casablanca was in the Hilton Hotel on Palm Beach when I first entered. The hotel went on to become a Wyndham and now it is a Westin. Here’s look at the chip.
$25 that thing was worth. I’m sure I used it on the craps table back in 1994, when I arrived in Aruba for the first time. Gambling is one bad habit I’ve given up. Those casinos aren’t built by the winners. I’d rather spend the money on fine food.
