Home Again

It sure is good to be home again. Although we did have a great time in Las Vegas. Coco Greeted us us with hisses and grouchey type meows to tell us her displeasure at our abandoning her. Once that was out of the way we gave her few treats, she has been super clingy since. Its amazing how she can express her anger but her affection within the same moment.

Vegas is a pretty kewl place it was my 3rd time there, and its been 2 years since I've been there. Forget about bringing rolls of quarters. Most machines in Vegas aren't intrested in your quarters. You feed them paper money and paper vouchers. You might find an odd coin fed machine off the strip, but they are quickly becomming an endangered species.

There is a pretty dramatic change in slot machines in Vegas, more of the multidenominational video type slots and fewer of the dollar and 50 cent slots. The penny games are fun but its a little decieving calling them penney slots. These things can cost up to 4 dollars a pull. Many of the games have sidegame bonuses and that is what can make them so fun.

The best gambling deals in Vegas are some of the new signups in the player clubs. Got 40 dollars worth play for 25 at Westin Cassauone place. Equality and I gambled for 3 hours on our $50 dolollar buyin and left with about $100. Wynn's gave us a couple of Buffets real quick on their players card.

We stayed at Mandalay Bay, a beautiful place. Wish the weather was a little warmer, because the grounds were beautiful. One of the nice things about staying and playing at the Mandalay Bay is that the Comps are for some pretty nice things. Reasonable places to eat is Raffles Cafe and of course the Buffet. The Cafe is jewel of a place where one can find a quiet place to eat with a view, the food is pretty good, and the prices are reasonable, The buffet is very good, and included champagne at the $22.95 a head price. Finding good food away from Mandalay Bay wasn't a problem either.

I had a great time and am now recharged till my next trip.
