Thursday, September 16th, 2010 Las Vegas











Namaste,
I woke up at 3:30 which would have been 5:30 here! I tossed and turned, so I got up and just looked out our window at the Strip. I wanted to go walk around the casino floor, but just relaxed and waited on Sherrie to wake up. I went downstairs to Starbucks while she was getting ready, and then we took a cab to Hash House a Go Go! This restaurant has been featured on Man Vs. Food, and the food network. Trey made us promise that we would go there one day! It was crazy how big the portions were. The food was artistic, beautiful, huge, and delicious!!!! We both ordered the "Basic Breakfast" which was the smallest meal on the menu, and our whole family could have shared it! We caught a bus back to the strip, and walked through the Sahara and Circus Circus. Misty called and wanted us to go to the Wedding venue with them. We loaded up in a mini van, and trusted the GPS, who lead us astray. We were suppose to meet the whole wedding party at the Mirage Buffet, it was called Cravings. I dare you to name a food they did not have. I had sushi, shrimp, hand tossed salad..... I can't even remember what all I ate. After lunch I wanted to show Sherrie how the rich people hang in Vegas. We went to the Forum Shops in Caesars Palace, and then through the casino, into the Bellagio, and then down to fountain show at Bellagio. We walked all the way back down to Fashion Place Mall. We waited on the shuttle that never came so we took a cab back to our hotel. We were hot and sweaty so we went to the pool for and hour. Danny came down and ask me if I wanted to go to the casino floor with him but Sherrie told Danny I had to take an hour nap. I started pouting and she gave in so I dressed and went to the floor with Danny! We played roulette and black jack, then headed up to the room. Sherrie and I walked down the street to In and Out Burger, and ate some yummy food. We realized the shuttle was getting ready to leave for the strip so we ran back to catch it! We walked down to Treasure Island to watch the pirate show, which happens on the outside of the Casino in a man made lagoon, then walked through Fashion Place Mall. We crossed the street and walked through the Wynn and Encore. The Wynn has a Ferrari dealership inside! It is about as fancy as it comes. We watched a guy playing black jack... $2,000 minimum bet and he was playing 3 positions at a time, and we never saw him win!!! I started to get tired so we caught the shuttle back. We changed clothes and walked down to the casino floor, where Sherrie kicked serious booty at roulette. We had a blast! We hit two numbers heads up two times in a row, which paid 70 to 1! I was jumping up and down like we won the lottery! We decided not to push our luck and went to the room. I knew Friday was going to be a busy day!
