Fantastagir’s Vacation -

…. Bullet Style….

  • I’m tired. Therefore I am posting using bullets.

  • Vacation was great.
  • Plane took off - and bounced all the way to Vegas.
  • Vegas was good - not great - there were parts that were great, but I think we went back too soon.
  • Hoover Dam? Sucked. If you have seen the movie Vegas Vacation you will see more of the dam, than you will with the dam movie, and dam tour guide. (and after the second time of hearing “Dam Guide Brude” it’s not funny.)
  • The Comedy Stop was awesome and worth every penny.
  • The Bodies Exhibit - not so much.
  • Having our “time clocks” messed up - not so bad - we ate at odd hours, but what the heck - I only gained 1.2 pounds -Diet starts tomorrow - YUCK!
  • Not having to make a single meal or cut anyone’s food for 4 days - good.
  • The Spice Market Buffet at Plant Hollywood - Good.
  • Bally’s Buffet - Not so much.
  • Bill’s Gambling Hall and Saloon - not the best place to stay.
  • Slots at Mandalay Bay - good - (I was up $22 when I cashed out - only $0.01 slots for me!)
  • Slots at every other Casino - TIGHT as hell.
  • Walking to Freemont Street from Bill’s - not such a great idea - but hey - we wouldn’t have seen Las Vegas’ Finest arresting a chick for selling drugs - good.
  • The Bus - interesting
  • Freemont Street - pretty good - but I like lights…
  • Vegas Airport Security - Those ladies and gentlemen need to get some “courtesy”.
  • Waiting on the airport runway for 30 minutes and no circulating air, or air conditioning - not so good.
  • Take off - good.
  • Flight - smooth = good - Mr. Incredible was very nice to me and let me have the window seat…. It was very smokey when we left Vegas, and very cloudy about 1/2 way through.
  • landing? - it landed - but for some reason the brake I had wasn’t working very well.
  • Being greeted at home by Pan and Tink - FANTASTIC!!!!

Now, I’m tired, so I’m going to bed… I’ll be around checking out blogs later, but I’ll be catching up with the kids, so it may take me a while.

    Las Vegas should only be done every few years. I don’t get people who go almost every weekend or once a month - it’s just too much overload for me!

    I’ve never heard of Bill’s…didn’t realize anyone but old downtown had penny slots…Hoover Dam is good when you’re in a boat on the water of Lake Mead. ;-)
