Las Vegas, NV

Up early again, hit the hotel breakfast, and then hit the road for Vegas. Was very excited to see that the road to Vegas goes over the Hoover Dam! Stopped and took another bunch of pictures.

We got to Vegas and had a little trouble looking for the hotel, but eventually found it. We're in a Comfort Inn directly across from the Hard Rock -- where, as P mentioned, Tool is playing very loudly. Otherwise the hotel is very nice: kitchenette, high speed Internet, king-sized bed.

Lunch being as mediocre as it was (the Pink Taco at the Hard Rock, mentioned by P -- not good), we decided we wanted something really good for dinner. We debated a bunch of different buffet options and settled on the Paris, and it was really delicious. I admit to overdoing it a bit on the dessert side...

We then wandered around the strip and took some pictures, then pooped out like the pathetic old people we are. Back to the hotel, to curse that Loud Rock and Roll and Those Damned Kids.

Tomorrow, the end of our journey -- Los Angeles!

Mandalay Bay

I stayed in the Mandalay Bay for TUS Con a couple of years back, and the buffett there was Fabulous. Lots of fresh fruits and veges and an omelette station to order. I can't remember the name of the Paris casino restaurant we ate in. Very expensive, but quite lovely. Ortanique looks familiar, but I don't remember it being Caribbean when we went.
