vegas day 2

Yesterday was a pretty eventful day. Since my uncle had his convention to go to my aunt and I hung for the afternoon.

My aunt and I woke up pretty late. We headed to Serendipity's at Caesars Palace the first chance we got. When we got there we were told there was a 30- 45 min. wait but we were seated in 15 mins. Uncle and another one of his co-workers joined us. They split a huge steak sandwich! It had 2 steaks, bacon and eggs on it! The sandwich was about a foot and a half long! My aunt and I had a frozen hot chocolate, asian chicken salad, and nachos. The atmosphere at Serendipity's was incredible. It kinda reminded me of something Willy Wonka and Dr. Seuss would put together but not as extreme. The chandeliers definitely had a Dr. Seuss influence. The frozen hot chocolate tasted like blended chocolate pudding! Yum!

After brunch at Serendipity's my aunt and I went to Caesars Palace, where i signed up for a players card. I got $5 in free slot play, a coupon book and a pager for signing up. If the pager beeped with in an hour I won something, if it didn't I got to keep the pager as a souvenir. I played the $5 slot voucher and lost it all. Good thing it wasn't my money. I think I'm going to give up on slots because I never win anything. Auntie and I went shopping at all the high end stores at Caesars Palace. I definitely didn't feel dressed up enough for that. Auntie tried to sell me a $1000 watch and a $2000 blazer... No thank you!

On the way back I redeemed one of the coupons for a free medallion. So now I have a Caesars Palace medallion!

Later that evening we met up with uncle and the fist co-worker to go to the Blue Martini again. He saw the pictures and he just had to go. He got me a shot glass from the Black Hat convention he went to for my birthday! That was really cool of him! They were filming a reality TV show when we got there. We opted out of being in the show. I got another picture with the cocktail waitress! this one was much prettier than the last. I ordered a cherry cosmo and a perfect pear. We also got seared tuna, and hummus for food.

After the Blue Martini we went to Ellis Island for ribs. While we were waiting for a table I tried craps and roulette for the first time. I also played black jack. Everyone lost a lot of money. Apparently nobody wins at that casino but nobody told me that until after I played! What's up with that? The ribs were absolutely amazing! The best I have ever had!!!

After almost finishing a full rack of ribs we went to the frozen custard shop. It's just like frozen yogurt but better. I was way to full from the ribs to finish the whole thing. I got mine with strawberry and raspberry toppings.

Uncle went to bed so auntie and I went back to the casino floor and gambled. We met some pretty interesting people from Texas. One of them had a personal photographer follow her around. She referred to him as her Asian. How bizarre! We ended up playing until 3:30 in the morning. We were up soo late that not a lot of tables were open. I ended up loosing more money. Yikes! I lost about $150 that night.
