Gambling Across the River

Another dream that I was across the river and there was a distinct awareness that getting across on one of the bridges was out of the question. One could go by boat, swimming or get in line on one of the on-ramps and walk across or take a tram across in a style that reminded me of getting on an ride at an amusement park. While across the river, I gambled with my friend, Derek. He insisted on playing a certain pair of slot machine and had specific instructions on how to play the slot. I did as he suggested and won 300 dollars. He disappeared to see one of his friends and meanwhile another one of his friends stole some of my belongings as well as my money. I wandered around, demanding justice and looking for my friend or the thief. Towards the end of the dream I confronted the thief and became irate.

Forgotten Treasures

 I was visiting home with brothers and sisters. Cousins were there, too, and they were forgotten about and young but they do not exist in real life but were nevertheless familiar with me as I was with them. We all gathered around a point in the living room, higher up on the wall and I uncovered a secret compartment in the wall. The compartment was about 1 foot/1 foot and slid out at a slight angle pointed towards the upstairs. It was as though this was meant to be a duct that was made removable by a tray mechanism. The long compartment was forgotten about until it was opened. Instant memories of it came to be real in the dream. I thought that we must have hidden things there are kids and in that moment, I looked into the compartment and saw clusters of things- a magazine, for one- deep inside of it. We all thought better of getting those things out at this time and wanted to save it for later.
