dreamcaster 0 Posted September 28, 2009 Author Share Posted September 28, 2009 Quick TR for you guys,Down on a Wednesday night from Toronto about 10:30 p.m. Took a shuttle to the Venetian. Wife and I go to check in with our discounted reservation in a Venezia Suite. I decided to skip the $20 trick as I didn't really care about a strip view. Staffer asks if I wanted smoking or non. I said non...next thing the staffer says he doesn't have any non-smoking rooms in the Venezia and offers me a comp upgrade to a strip view room in the Palazzo. Nice. Room had a great view of TI and one of the pirate shows was running when we looked out the window.Played the Venetian 12:00 daily next day with the wife. Both knocked out in the early going on the losing end of coin-flips. I follow that up with a crappy run of Carribean Stud. Head out to the strip for food and booze. Went to see Believe over at the Luxor. I enjoyed the show overall and it had a good theme/tone. Would have enjoyed it more if there were more simple magic tricks included. Finished up the night with some drunken Limit hold'em at the MGM grand.Friday, went down to Ceasar's from their 12:00 daily. 91 players ran, wife busted about 31st losing another coin flip. I took a big hit with 15 left with A-J < A-4. Busted shortly after. Whatever. Made our way down to the Luxor again and enjoyed the grub at the House of Blues restaurant. Planned to stop off at the hotel to get changed before heading down the Freemont Street...but Jet lag got the better of us and we ended up crashing for the night instead.Last day there on Saturday (red eye leaving 11:40 p.m.), we first head down to Freemont Street to see that area...felt like a waste of time to me. We promptly head down to Miracle Mile by Planet Hollywood to grab some gifts for my crew. Walked by Dreamcar Rentals and decide to grab a car and check out the Hoover Damm. Had a choice between a Ferrari 360 or a Porsche Boxster. I was going to rent the Ferrari for 7 bills but then there was another $250 of additional insurance, blah, blah, blah, so I just took the Boxster instead. 100 degrees with the top down along Lake Meed Road made for a nice trip. Glad I didn't call Enterprise for a Carolla or something.Finished off the day with stops in various casinos, bought a 3-D photo of the wife and I in a glass cube (pretty cool). Ended up not winning jack this time around (was up in Limit Holdem but lost in everything else). Wife enjoyed the trip as did I for my 2nd trip out to Vegas. Link to post Share on other sites
