    I just played some Freebet blackjack. In for 2020(in for 200 but that's a sign, right?) and out for 390. I would have kept playing but had a dinner res. I'm at Jaleo for sangria hour. So of course I had to try the Sangria! Yummy!

    I'm Back in the room. Gambling has been up and down today and then headed down so I decided to quit and take home 3/4 of my bankroll! I call that a win after 8 days in Vegas, all nights free and 75‰ of my food comped!

    I was going to sit on the terrace but someone nearby has music blasting and I'm Getting a contact high. I'm even getting a bit in the room just having the slider open.

    Right now I'm going to finish my wine and watch the Masked Singer finale! Here's a few last pics.

    That's incredible and a good deal. I went home with 7.5% of my bankroll after my 8 day trip, and only 6 if those days were in Vegas! Plus I had to pay for more than 25% of my food. I'd take that any time, next best thing after a win! Thanks for sharing! Almost final countdown for me now!

    If any of my BR is left I mark it in the break even column. Don’t sweat the weight, if you are like me and don’t eat out much, your body isn’t used to all the salt in restaurant food. ( I won’t mention the booze) I always come home looking like the Michelin Man. Just drink a ton of water when you get home and it will disappear in a few days.

    Thanks for the ride. Your trip seemed to go by super fast to me too. As always you fit in lots of great, varied places. Thanks for taking us along. Safe travels home...until next time.

    That rug at Paris could become unsafe soon. I'd post it on Tripadvisor so maybe a Paris person sees it. Thanx for TR! I watched a rudies slot vid this week and it was fun.

    My last morning. I'm packing up. The morning started a bit Grey, like my mood because I have to go.
    20201217_094448.jpg

    My flight is already delayed. Hope it doesn't delay more. As it is, I'll be getting home after midnight which will wake the dog who will wake the hubby. Oh well!

    Thanks everyone for following along! Vlog videos to come and I'll check in from home. Or maybe I'll hit a jackpot at the airport. :kill:
