Well here is another wonderful Vegas vacation. I have
really lagged in keeping up with the Blog details.
Our Southwest flight was excellent as usual. No issues with the wheelchair. There is a LOT of abuse on this airline with
"disabled" passengers. So much so that it is getting out of hand. I completely understand that some people may need
the assistance to get from check in to the gate. When I see
the same people bolt after we land, I consider that abuse and unfair to other passengers.
Anyhow...our stays have included - Lake George Econolodge, La Quinta in Albany, Main Street Station, Aquarius, Gold Coast and soon Sam's Town.
We met Gary for lunch at Ping Pang Pong and shared food stories along with restaurant referrals and general catch up chat. Gary is a phenomenal source for Vegas as he is an
MGM employee and gate keeper for KA.
One of the best comedy shows I have ever seen was Gallagher
at the Tropicana. He was WAY more cerebral than I imagined. He is bordering on brilliant. We both had good
belly laughs from his show along with having our photo
taken with him prior to the performance.
Burkes in Laughlin scored us some shoe deals (see above pic).
Due to this Cushing Syndrome, I gave myself a break and got a pair of size 10 sneakers. The extra space is heavenly. The
sandals are for Cor and Mom. All of the pairs totalled less
than six bucks.
Gaming isn't in our favor that is for sure. At this point going
home even would be a treat. Anything can happen. Yesterday
we did really well at Silverton playing 100 play VP followed
by an incredible supper at El Cortez (comped).
In an hour or so we are off to Four Kegs (Diners, Drive-ins & Dives) with Norm and Andrea. James and I had breakfast with Carol here at the Java restaurant.
Time to hit the gym before heading out.
