Catalina And The Casino



Happy Labor Day! In honor of the three day weekend, let's take a boat trip...



My Water Post For Today.

It is only 26 miles away from the mainland United States, but a world apart. This is the Casino on Catalina Island. A beautiful structure, built by the Wrigley family. It is used now days for movies and special events, but back in the day, it was a get away for the rich and famous. Gambling and Las Vegas style shows were normal occurrences here.

Enjoy Avalon harbor and the casino of Catalina.
