Vegas is definitely all that it’s advertised to be. It really is a neon city. Next time I want to go to Freemont Street and see the older casinos lit up at night. It was great during the day but I’m sure it’s spectacular at night. It’s been a fun filled two and a half days in Vegas so far. What have I accomplished so far:
- Gambled
- Shopped at the Grand Canal Shoppes
- Bought pastries from Carlo’s Bake Shop (from Cake Boss)
- Walked part of the strip
- Visited the Gold and Silver Pawn Shop (for you Nick)
- Visited the M&M Shop
- Walked through the Freemont Street Experience
- Played blackjack at a table for the first time (won $32!)
- Ate dinner at some fabulous restaurants (Grand Lux, Trattorria Reggiano, Tao Asian Bisto)
- Enjoyed walking through other casinos (Treasure Island, Mirage, Palazzo, Harrah’s)
There are so many other things that I want to do but tomorrow is my last day here. I’m leaving at 8:00 am to fly to Pittsburgh to visit my Mom and my son. I will definitely have to come back to see everything else I missed. Maybe I have to come more than once!
Now I’m going back down to the casino for a little slot machine playing before dinner. Who knows what else is going on tonight – remember, “What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas”!
