Returned from Las Vegas on Thursday. It was really terrific, better than that even. Now, it's not New Orleans but it's damn close. I would definitely go back, but I would prefer to go with friends who are willing to gamble at the tables. I didn't have as much fun playing poker with a table full of strangers than I normally do at Friday night sessions with SCUM.
I did end up ahead on the trip. I won 100 at the roulette table and lost 50 at another roulette table. I won 5 at the poker table and then lost 15 at another poker table. And the always unlucky video gambling, I lost 20 on that! But the drinks were free (triples in short glasses) and the food was pretty good (if expensive, no comps there).
The Belaggio light and water show was spectacular, so tremendous that I had to see it twice to get the full effect and beauty. You must see this if you go to Vegas, especially if you love the way water moves. I can barley describe the feeling that I have towards this show. Awestruck is part of the feeling, and in general, changed. No, I haven't been drinking, but I have been searching my soul. I am getting closer to where I must be and you will all know when I arrive.
