Today was a pretty relaxed day - woke up about 11am and finally left the room about 12noon when @_Lucky45 picked me up. We headed to the Tropicana as I have never set foot therein and felt it was about time to check it out. It was nice and clean - the ceilings were a bit low (owing to being an older property) - and it was much nicer than I expected -- toured the grounds and the pool area looked like fun - I would definitely consider staying there.
From there - we headed to Red Rocks as I have never been there either -- it was a classy casino and I learned that much of the movie "21" was filmed therein - I would also have no problem staying there either:
Went to a local spot for dinner - "Bootleggers" - good Italian fare - I had the chicken parmigiana with a side of spaghetti -- rather than a basket of bread, they put out garlic knots with dipping sauce - excellently prepared.
Now, @_Lucky45 and I are going to surprise Mitch from @TippingOddsLV over at the Southpoint. Mitch was indeed surprised and we ended up watching him play some Video Poker, grabbed a quick bite to eat eat Steak 'n Shake and even played some roulette (I bet black 4 in a row and only won once lol). The incomparable Mitch: Today felt like a day where I did not really want to gamble - I just wanted to relax and enjoy Vegas and check out some places I had never been to while hanging out with some good friends. Tomorrow will be my last day in Vegas before heading home and I plan on playing some cards - stay tuned.
F***ing Mitch :)
