    Ummmm, you're east coast time buttercup... I don't think it's three in the morning... You're on MY Vegas timeclock now, I think you're working on 5 am, not 3!! :noangel:


    (***update, I realize I had my timezones, all wrong. So I do know now. Duh on my duh! Luck knows I still would have found a way to call her "buttercup" though :blowkiss:)

    You guys! There are SO many cute animals here, omg.

    We can see pelicans and terns and other cool birds from our room! :) And dolphins and M saw sharkssss and it's a great day. Waking up with some handsome guy doesn't hurt either, but hey!

    Glad you finally made it! I understand your DFW frustration. Cramped airport and one time I connected through there coming back from Disney I had a cold and damn planes clogged my ears. :bang:

    Hope the rest of your trip goes well!

    Thanks @tringlomane and thanks everyone!

    Absolutely gorgeous day so far. 20200613_125211.jpg

    Just returned my cute little Ford EcoSport. I have an Elantra at home, but potentially looking at upgrading within the next year. I was eyeing crossovers and some smaller SUVs, but Ford was not on my list - now, with that lil guy, they might be.

    I keep forgetting everywhere else is cheaper than California, and almost overfilled the tank hahaha Jesus. 20200613_122938.jpg

    Are you venturing further east beyond Biloxi for your East Coast trip? Was reading your report (love it by the way) and noticed your “East Coast” trip ended at the Gulf Coast. [emoji23] Close enough.

    Hope you and [mention]MCann [/mention]are having a lovely time! Looks like he fed the machines a bit while waiting for you so I hope you’re able to pocket some cash to take home!

    @rcc4au - thanks haha. I have no concept of time and space. I go farther than AZ or TX, I get lost. :rolleyes2: I'm a natural blonde, guess it's a side effect.

    I had a great mini lunch! I also gave Beau Rivage $60 for free. Buffalos and some other dumb game just ate it all up. If that dude hadn't been on S&C (the nerve, right? :rolleyes:) I could've been winning a billion dollars there!

    I believe me and M are off to explore uncharted territory (new casino!) soon! :woohoo:

    Soooooo aparantly I don't know my time zones.
    @flyguy so gently let me know in a PM that it's CST. (He's always such a class-act, thank you Fly!)

    But Miss Fancy Pants Foodie MF-dropping adventurer, I still wanted to drop the "buttercup" quote, I love that for some reason!

    Have a blast Luck and loving the report!

    Very very impressed with the slot selection and availability at Palace.

    Very impressed with the sanitation and cleanliness procedures here.

    Masks are encouraged and I believe required to enter? Slots are wiped down and sanitized constantly.

    Slot availability is perfect, almost every machine is on. The floor is large and spacious, with the machines positioned in ways to allow for social distancing, no crowding.

    Other nice touch? Sanitation crews (yes there are several), place a individually wrapped hand sanitizing wipe on each and every machine, and in the seats in the high limit lounge.
