Vegas baby!!!
We arrived yesterday at around 2:30pm in Vegas. It tool us over an hour to get checked into the hotel. Once checked in, we lugged our suit cases about 10 miles to our room as I'm too cheap to get bell hop, but may have been worth it in the end. The hotel is HUGE! Oh Merle, I think we spotted your foot print in the pavement near Tropicana. The Flamingo is a MUCH nicer hotel than Tropicana. It is newer, cleaner, and just all around nicer! We would've easily paid $100+ for our room. But we got it for $45CDN.
Getting WiFi access was a challenge!!! Starbucks has free WiFi, but finding a Starbucks that is still open for business is tough!!! The economy is so bad in Vegas and it is apparent everywhere you go. I have a Starbucks finder on my GPS that works awesome, but they were all closed. We finally found one that was open, but closed for the night.
We are having a blast in Vegas. It is super hot (109 degrees), but makes the pool all that much better. We spent most of our day lounging at the pool and I had a blast on the water slides!!! I can't get enough of them!!!
We actually chose to lounge around in the "Go Pool", which is a top optional 21+ area. It is much quieter without screaming children running around splashing all over the place. Drink specials were pretty good too. 2 Coronas for $6 which went down a little too smooth.
Dot was hungry for Italian food, so we went to a place Buca di Beppa. It was family style dishes, so we had way too much to eat for the 2 of us. But it was so good!!!
Well that's about it for now! I'm sure there is a lot more, but I'm not going to bore anyone with too much detail.
Later!!
