This is Mar-a-Lago, the sprawling private resort and national historic landmark in Palm Beach,
Florida, with a towering U.S. flag and a handful of croquet players.
Just past the fountains and foliage, driving up to the gate, you're met by security.
After all, Mar-a-Lago is owned by Donald J. Trump and he is the president.
At least a member thinks so.
Are we at Donald's home?
Are we?
Are we sure maybe?
Her face is blurred out of courtesy because Mar-a-Lago is just that exclusive.
Once inside, there's no doubt.
A plaque in the entry spells it out for you.
A life-size portrait of a much younger Donald J. Trump in tennis whites hangs in the bar.
Over the bartender is another painting that gets far fewer selfies in front of it.
This is members only, with occasional guests and drop-ins.
President Trump spends considerable time here at Mar-a-Lago.
Donald Trump isn't here right now, but he's expected for the weekend.
Otherwise, I'm sure they wouldn't let me in.
But when he is, the Winter White House, as it's known,
plays host to the rich and famous and powerful, like Chinese President Xi.
Back in the day, Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley spent their honeymoon here.
These tiny pigs in blankets are passed around as hors d'oeuvres.
There are rows of shrimp and clams and tables full of every possible dessert to wreck a diet.
That the president has a thing for McDonald's burgers is pretty well known,
but here at Mar-a-Lago, the staff says chocolate cake is a personal favorite of POTUS.
I managed to get my hands on a slice, took a bite,
and let's just say that I think I'll stick with the local favorite, key lime pie.
