    My Trip Report

    Alright last minute decision do a report for this quick trip. I have enjoyed all the reports lately and and its always nice to bring all the VMBers along for the ride. I just arrived at MSP in time to walk down the jet way.

    First two nights are at Circa and the last night is at Resorts World
    I originally had a comp at Mirage for the last night but just found a "deal" using 70,000 hhonors points for a room at Resorts World. Actually was surprised to get it that low as the rest of the rooms were around 200,000 pts. Only firm plan I have for the trip is the Wynn BBQ Masterclass on Friday. I have to thank @Flowers for turning me on to the Masterclasses with her great reviews. It was sold out about 2 weeks ago when I originally inquired and was put on a wait list. Receieved the call from the Wynn concierge that space had opened up yesterday so that was a great surprise.

    Bankroll is about double my average so it should be a gambling heavy trip, mostly slots with some Pai Gow and Blackjack mixed in. If anyone has anything they are interested is seeing let me know. Going to try and be pic heavy report.

    Hello Las Vegas!

    20210630_110235.jpg

    Great to be back to rainy Las Vegas, stepped out to the rental car bus and saw the rain and it actually felt cool out. Finally made it to Circa after a couple hours of video calls for work in the rental car. Plans for tonight are Barry's for dinner and gambling. Already converted $175 free play into $148.75 on Kitty Glitter in the high limit room, put in $500 of my own money. Had a nice Siamese cat hit for $125, gotta love the cats.

    Couple room pics incase anyone else is interested, asked for a corner studio upgrade but was rejected but was "upgraded" to a high floor city view.

    If you pull on that handle above your couch, you will reveal a Murphy Bed. Wish I had known this when I stayed for no reason other than OH WOW COOL

    Looking forward to your review of the BBQ Masterclass at the Wynn. Like you, I loved Flowers review of her class…I so want to attend one these events in the near future.

    Great night, feeling a little rough this morning. Stayed between Circa and Golden Gate all night. Played craps at a $15 table at Golden Gate for a couple hours with fun crew. Was down quite a bit and then a guy on the other end of the table had a monster roll that lasted at least 45 minutes. Got me back to even there. Sports betting was a bit shitty, went 1 for 5. Overall kept half my day one budget intact so we are doing good.

    Definitely failed on the picture front, I promise to do better, maybe.

    Dinner at Barry's was as good as I remember. Started with Lobster Bisque and then had the rib cap medium rare and egg noodles bone marrow luge. Highly recommended all.

    Looking forward to following along! Lobster bisque is always a favorite of mine. But that cocktail with it… old fashioned? Looks like a clear cube and luxardos, nice! Enjoy :beer:

    Pocket dump from last night, no sandals.

    On a different note my neck f'n hurts from the damn pillows. Saw someone else complain about them in a trip report a
    Just a bit ago and agree completely, way to overstuffed and not soft. I do t remember the corner studio I had in December having bad pillows.

    God, I hate waking up like that because of pillow failure. I think you need to take advice from @AyDee and get a table massage. I’ve refused them every time, but not next time... :thumbsup:
