What's New?

What is up?

Well, here is a bit more about our trip to Sin City. Enjoy!

7 Nov 12

We got up at around 7:30am. We lazed around watching the news on TV about Obama's re-election. WooHoo!

We got ourselves together and we headed over to the "Excalibur" to meet up with Bobby for breakfast at the buffet. It cost us $16.00 apiece and well worth it. The food was very good and the selection was vast.

After breakfast we hit the slots and we started to win for a change. After we played slots for awhile Elise and Bobby bought tickets for "Thunder Down Under" for this evening at 9:00pm. I decided to continue to pull some slots instead of watching guys shake their groove thangs and money makers, smile! The tickets were expensive but Elise said that it was well worth the $75.00 a piece price tag. They got seats front row center so if the urge hit to reach out and touch something,well enough said about that, eh? For more details please contact Elise or Bobby, smile!

We left the "Excalibur" after we checked out Bobby's room. We stopped back over to our room at the "MGM Grand" and Bobby got a chance to see what our room looked like. Elise put on her walking shoes because were going to walk the strip to show Bobby the sights.

We stopped for a light lunch. Elise had a DQ ice cream, Bobby had a chili dog and fries and I choose not to have anything. We began our trek down the strip. A lot of people are out this afternoon.

We stopped in the Venetian so Bobby could take it all in.  We were there for awhile and they have some very potent drinks, smile. So we played a slot or two. We continued to walk the strip so Bobby could take as many pics as he desired.

Later we stopped at the "Bellagio" jut in time to see the water show. It was very good and it was wall to wall people there taking movies and pics. Bobby got to see it at the best time in the dark while the water was lighted.

We left there and we headed back toward our hotels. We stopped in "New York, New York" at the "Nine Irishmen" for dinner. We had about a 30 minute wait so we played a few more slots in "New York, New York". 

After our table was ready we placed our orders. Elise had a couple of "Redbridge beers", Bobby had a "vodka martini" and I had a English beer called" Toxic Shock" that was pretty good.

Elise had "Bangers and Mash", Bobby had "Shepherds Pie", I had a "Pork Porterhouse" with mac and cheese. All very good. We returned to our respective hotels until it was time for the show at the "Excalibur" 

Bobby and Elise met up for the show and I played more slots. I did pretty good while they watched the guys shake their booties! After the show Elise and Bobby found me at a slot and they said the show was very good.

So we played slots for a bit more. Bobby departed after playing the slots and Elise turned in at around 11:00pm. I continued to play the slots until 11:30pm, with some luck I might add. That ended our second night in Sin City.

Sin City must be almost overpowering! I wonder how many small countries its electricity would light up.
