Last year, my husband, Eddie had just got out of the hospital so he had a lot of making up to do on this trip and my goal was anything that we had never done before.
Got there Sunday morning and went straight to the Gospel Brunch at the House of Blues after getting our car at Alamo for $97 for the week. It was ok and kind of fun. Lots of food and lots of mimosas. House of Blues for the month of November is charging $10 more than usual for it because it is
all you can drink. Nothing like all you can drink at 10 in the morning while at a Gospel brunch.
Sunday night, ate at the seafood buffet at the Fremont Hotel. We went to the Cirque du Soleil show Love. This is the best show I have seen yet. I would go back to this at full price.
Monday was shopping, eating and gambling for me and Eddie went to the Shelby tour. Monday night, we ate at Burger Bar at Mandalay Bay. Had the Kobe burger and then we saw my idol and number one man, Criss Angel. Well that show was so bad that I can't say he is my number one man anymore.
Tuesday and Wednesday days were at the SEMA show. Lots of race people including Bill Elliot, Tony Stewart, Clint Bowyer, Kyle Bucsh, Greg Zippideli, Mike Helton, Denny Hamlin, Greg Biffle, John Force, Ashley Force, Larry McReynolds, Robert Hight and more that I can't remember. Nelly, the rap star was there. Got his autograph and I told him on the picture he autographed to just put his name on it because I taught school and my kids would think that was cool. He said, yes they will think that this is the coolest thing you have done. Wow, just a little full of himself.
Wednesday night was Lance Burton. He was great. Ate at Harley Davidson Cafe.
Thursday, gambled a lot and then ate at Bellagio Buffet for lunch. NOt very impressive. Sorry. Thought Planet Hollywood and Red Rock buffets were better. At 2, met with lots of internet friends who love Vegas like me including Jaime from PA and her husband. Had a great time with all of them at Diablos.
Friday, after checking out, we had to take a big box to Fed Ex of stuff we got at the SEMA show. After that, ate finally for the first time at In N Out Burger. That's been on my list for years now. Drove out to the Hoover Damn to see the progress on the new road. Then on to Ethyl M's for Eddie's candy fix. One last drive down the strip before going back to Alamo. Got to the airport 2 hours before flight and everything is great. Since we take off at 7 pm, we decide to get sandwiches to go at Flatbreadz to go and that's when we get the phone call from US Airways that our flight was delayed by 3 hours. Got back home at 3 am on Saturday morning. Already planned our next trip. It's from Oct. 31 to November 5th. in 2009. Don't forget if anyone wants to meet up.
