Saga Continues, TR 3rd day - get moving

Did I say the beds are comfy? No construction noise, window opens up at least 1 1/2 inches if you need air relief.



Husband goes to Starbucks - did not bring Starbucks card - and brings back java, muffins and fruit. $18.00.



Thought we%26#39;d check out Luxor and MB but seems a bomb went off at 4:00 am and south end is pretty much under seige with the LVPD. Decide to head north again. Slip on flip flops - air soles - I%26#39;m on cotton.



Leave at 9:00 am and have no foot traffic issues getting to Caesers. Love this place - walk abit and sit down to present our money to the gambling goddess. She smiles at me and glances at my husband. Happily I cash out ahead and we continue thru the Forum shops to the north end. Across we enter Flamingo (drop money and keep moving) Harrah%26#39;s money in and money out and I%26#39;m thirsty. Stop at Casino Royale. Husband says I%26#39;ll grab you a slushy margarita. Wait at a WOF and put in $1.00 and play 9 lines at 1 point a line. Go down to last push. Hit SPIN. Walked away with a 12.50 win. Walked up to cashier and and said ';I%26#39;m walking away a winner';. Lovely women laughed and said ';good luck with your trip'; while I grabbed my winnings.



Next came Venetian - what a beautiful resort. While it had been many years since our first stroll we put this on our list as resorts to stay at. Smell??, well, I sneezed and then a few more times - put the %26#39;stay at%26#39; down on the list. Walked the canal, listening to the music and checking out the shops. Saw Jimmy



Choo and showed shoes in window to husband. Ooh and Ahhs...Husband has the glazed look so venture on .Played another ?Butterfly 1 cent machine (husband on cell phone again) and just kept hitting. I%26#39;m only playing 1 bet per line and it%26#39;s singing and dancing. Husband says let%26#39;s go, Put in $5.00 - walked away with $125.75.



Walk to Wynn - top of my list of %26#39;to visit%26#39;. No crowds except at line up for red card.( 20 people) Husband says no but I point out 4 people working lineup. Under 8 minutes have card and free play. Sit down, CW at our elbow - I order water and husband orders bottle of beer - give her $5.00. She%26#39;s back with beer and asks if we want change...smile and said nope. That girl followed us all over the casino. Like the resort, people were very friendly...a return visit.



At this point I%26#39;m feeling hungry (12:00) and mention that dinner is at 5:30. Husband grabs hand and away we go. Stopped at Harrah%26#39;s again - still not paying. Husband looking for signs for Keith%26#39;s but doesn%26#39;t see where to go so he grabs hand and says Margaritaville.



Had crab/shrimp/mushroom dip + wings. With signature drinks was a great time. Noise level elevated as the crowd increased.



We drop cash in IP and then Flamingo and Bill%26#39;s.



Cross over and head back to MC to meet up with Barbs for dinner at Casa di Amore.



Sorry. another post to come



Saga Continues, TR 3rd day - get moving

Saga Continues, TR 3rd day - get moving


Can%26#39;t wait to hear about Casa di Amore.



BTW Toby Keith%26#39;s is upstairs.




RU - yes, he hauled me away. Probably a good time though. I won here and there but had a great time. Made sure to %26#39;spread the wealth%26#39; amongst the Harrahs%26#39; empire.



Barr - $125.00 for shoes. I need steel toed for site inspections, They were gorgeous BTW -husband did say to try on a few...




Ahhhhhh Choo shoes! Look how close you got to VV!

Hmmmm..... listening intently....following your travels.... forming opinions..... Husband seems like a good guy, goes and fetches you Starbucks.... then paying attention to you, he grabs you a slushy margarita.... then when you%26#39;re hungry he grabs you by the hand and leads you to Margaritaville... Take command type of guy that makes sure you%26#39;re taken care of.... but...
