Vegas Baby

The day started early (4am) with our trip from the Hotel to the airport for a 6am flight. We flew from NY to Philly, then onward to Vegas. Our flighe left NY at 6am and we were in the ground by 10am Vegas time. So we pretty much gained a whole day. Once we arrived we luckily able to check in to the Condo way earlier than normal. We had a few hours to kill before our Bowling Wives arrived to join us for our fabulous vacation. We dropped off our luggage and hopped the shuttle to NY NY and then just started walking.

Our first course of action was to find some food. The hubby found some reviews for a Noodle shop that served Dim Sum so we stopped there. Noodles at the Bellagio was Fabulous! We ordered Steamed Pork Buns, Shrimp wontons, Peppered Short Ribs, and then a bowl of Barbecue Pork Noodles. The hubby had a beer and I had this fabulous drink called a funky monkey. After lunch we wandered through the casino taking in the sights. When we left to move on to the next stop we timed it just right to see the Fountains of Bellagio show. It was pretty amazing during the day but I want to go back and check it out at night. After the water show we just walked and walked and walked, and people watched. So far the tally is 2 bachelorettes and 1 Elvis sighting.

We finally stopped walking when we hit Caesar’s Palace. I played my first $10 in the Penny Slot machine, we decided we were tired and headed back to NY NY to get the shuttle to our condo. Nap time commenced, then it was time to hunt down some dinner. Naturally we had to eat at a buffet. Since the Condo offers a Shuttle to either The Orleans or NY NY we looked to see what the Orleans had to offer for a buffet. It was actually pretty good. So after satisfying our dinner craving we headed back to the condo to await our friends. They finally arrived and after some catching up and chit a chat we retired to bed as we had been up for like 20 hours.

Sunday is here and I am enjoying a cup of coffee and some relaxation before we begin the days journey.
