Vegas III: First Day

Waking up at 5:30am, proceeded to the airport via a cab with flurries falling down from the sky. It's April, and its SEATTLE... and it's snowing... what's wrong with this picture???

Anyway, got to the airport and checked in ridiculously fast. Sat at the terminal after and waited to board plane.

After meeting up with parents at the LV Airport, we went to the hotel and had a champagne brunch. After this, we walked from Stratosphere to the main strip. Took an hour to get to the main strip... which really surprised me. I knew it was far, but not an hour far!...

After seeing a few hotels, we went to Casino Royale to play the promotion slot machines. 3 of us were playing with a total of 100 credits... for 1.5 hours! During this time, we saw 4 sets of people come and go beside us, while we were still pulling the lever. If only it was not a promotional machine... the trip would have been paid for! At the highest point we had over 450 credits!

Ended with a dinner at the Spice market. They had oysters there, but maybe because I am spoiled here, they did not really taste all that good. The lamb and cotton candy was good as always though :)

After parents went to bed, went down to Stratosphere to play some blackjack. Let's just say I paid my tuition fee there. But it was fun nevertheless...

So ends the first night at LV III.
