• I'm back from Vegas.

  Wednesday

  Esther and I headed off to Vegas around 12:30 pm.   We made a few stops and finally reached New York New York around 6 pm (we wouldn't made it much earlier if not for the two major traffic jams we hit along the way).   Once we checked in, we headed over to the Bellagio for dinner.   After dinner, we went to downtown and gambled for a few hours before heading back to New York New York to call it a night. 

  Thursday

  Once we woke up, we drove over to Sam's Town for lunch.   We initially had plans to play bingo there but that didn't go through.   Instead, we gambled for  bit and then went back to the hotel to take a nap.   After we woke up, we drove over to the Wynn for dinner.   I personally think the Bellagio's buffet is so much better than the Wynn's but that's just my opinion.   Anyway, after we ate, we went to downtown and walked around.   We tried this new game called Texas Holdem Bonus.   It's pretty fun but die hard holdem fanatics should not play this game.  Once we finished gambling, we went back to the hotel and walked over to the MGM Grand to check it out.  Neither of us had ever been there before.    After we finished walking around, we headed up to the room and went to sleep.

  Friday

  After Esther and I checked it out, we headed over to Primm.  We ate the buffet there and then went shopping at the outlet stores.   Once we finished shopping, we headed for home.  On the way home, we stopped at the mall in Arcadia since I wanted to pick up a present for my grandmother.    I opted to buy her these contour slippers they sell at Sharper Image.   Once I made my purchase, we went to eat at this sushi place in the mall.  It was that bad but they are kind of skimpy when it comes to the rice.  The fish was really fresh though so that made up for it.   After we finished eating, I dropped Esther off and went home.
