Las Vegas

In all the excitement of packing for Vegas, I forgot my camera. I know, no pictures to bore you with, just words. I will try to make it short and sweet.

We arrived safe and sound and checked into our room at the Palazzo. It is a newer hotel, part of the Venetian, and just beautiful. Our room was the nicest one I have ever stayed in by far. The sectional couch was the most comfortable thing I have ever sat on, if only it would have fit into our luggage. The bathroom was great too, jacuzzi tub and all.

I have never been disappointed with the food in Vegas, and they did not let me down this time either. Dal Toro served up some mean ravioli and lasagna. SUSHISAMBA had the best sushi ever. And craftsteak, well, lets say it was heavenly. We munched on shrimp, roasted red peppers, diver scallops, 4 different cuts of Kobe beef, potato puree, and many other fabulous sides. Our deserts included monkey bread, lava cake, bread pudding, about 8 different sorbets, and fruit too. My feet will be hitting the trail soon!!

Gaming was quite fun too. Some of our favorites included Let it Ride and Caribbean Poker. Not so favorites this time around - Three Card Poker, Black Jack, and Wheel of Fortune. Wheel of Fortune was only a fortune for the casinos, but Travis managed to keep it going for us on the tables!

Oh yeah, Travis learned some great things at his meetings, and I enjoyed walking the shops, the pool, and napping. Our last night included a banquet and concert by Chicago. A little old for us, but they did play a few songs we knew.

We had a great time and can't wait to go back!!
