Arrival

Paul, Greg, TC, Evan, Brad and myself all landed safely on the early flight. We were in the airport at 4pm headed to get our bags. TC had a "car" waiting for him. By the time we got on the tram to get the bags to catch the bus to get the rental car, we were done. Greg was hungry and complaining. Then we head out and hit ridiculous traffic on the strip. The oohs and aahs quickly turned into a bunch of whining!

By the time we got to the Flamingo and all checked in, 2 hours were lost...it was 6pm! Anyhow, after a little discussion the boys stuck with Paul and I and we headed out on the strip to find some eats.

A good dinner at the Outback and life is better. Greg, Brad and Evan were mesmerized by the tacky volcano eruption at The Mirage so we had to wait with all the Japanese tourist. Once it "blew", all agreed it was lame. Paul and I led them on a quick tour of the Venetian as we were there anyhow. Unbelievable until you see it. http://www.venetian.com/GCS.aspx

Finally got a call from Vadim and said they were headed up to the counter to check in. We headed over to make sure all was good. Of course, Lucky was no where to be seen. He took another shuttle! He showed up eventually. Their flight was 2 hours late HAHA! After a few road bumps they got their room then they headed out to dinner and then to meet up with Brad, Greg and Evan. Us old guys went up to the room for the night...maybe

Ice Cream is calling me BAD!
