went to sin city for some R&R and mama tita's birthday.
(photos up at facebook)
day one - spent mostly on the plane, i didnt get to sleep but i did catch up on some reading. arrived in Vegas at 1am, ate the wonderful oxtail soup of california hotel. gambled, then went to bed
day two - up late. HAHAHAHA! woke up in time for lunch! wooot! it's been a while since i've done that. although if you think about it, its still pretty early hawaii time. so, shet. hahaha! treated them for lunch, went to get our car and drove to the strip. went to Wynn, Venezia, and the home of hangover, Ceasar's Palace. had yummy fancy birthday dinner at BOA steakhouse. (i think). hurried to the Bellagio for the fountain show. jaywalked from the hotel to the fountain (coz we didn't see the way to the fountain, and we're pinoys. hahaha!) then retired to the hotel. nag oxtail soup ata ulit kami
day three - not much pictures. still woke up a little before lunch, went to shop at the outlet stores, then went to in-n-out (yahoooo!) then excalibur, walked all the way to mandalay bay. this was the day that we saw GSP, actually ATE did, but we didn't know it was him until the next day when we googled for MMA fighters hahahahahaha! and i didnt get to have my pic taken because the big a** secu boxed me out. shiyet. went back to the hotel coz ate needs to get ready to watch thunder from down under, she drove to excalibur but she was late so we just dropped her off and me and mama tita looked for parking. yes, i drove in vegas, it was ok but for a moment there i thought we'd never find one parking. naikot na namin yung likod, finally saw a couple walking in the parking lot, so we stalked them. HAHAHAHA! in fairness, one fluid motion, perfect parking, no scratches, partida may humps pa bago yung spot. lol! so we waited for the show to finish, mama tita played the machines, i braved the tables. hahahaha! imperness i was winning in pai gao, but eventually the bank hit like 4 good hands in a row, so boo! lol! loved the free drinks though hahahaha! lugi ata sila sakin dun, dollar a drink lang (nag titip naman ako, di naman ako ganun kakuripot)
day four - manang aileen picked us up and we had a nice lunch with the fam. then they brought us to Aria (ang sosyaling modern mall) took a tram to monte carlo and walked to M&M's HAHAHA! WE HAAAD TO! then MGM, walked across to NY! NY!, thinking about riding the roller coaster since i didn't get to jump stratosphere but they told me it was a one hour wait, shiyet. so we went back to aria. me ate and anthony went back to the hotel coz me and ate needs to go to a bachelorette party that night, met up with them at M hotel, which was a little long drive from the strip. FINALLY ate buffet. then after stuffing my big tyan, we drove back to encore to meet the bride and her girls for a night of drinking. didn't drink that much (i know... so not me) and felt kinda out of place because all of the girls are wearing pantyhose dresses (as in, parang uniform, swear, iba iba lang ang print pero pare pareho style) good thing all the girls we were with were fun fun fun! and we had a BED to our own, yes, they have beds instead of tables and chairs. love it! had to help out one of the girls home, went back, screamed-slash-sang to katy perr'y california girls and some more songs, but then everybody was starting to get tipsy but me, so we retired for the night. we had an early flight tomorrow too, so...
last day was spent at the airport, did a little gambling, won a little bit again hahahahaha! this time i slept most of the 5 hours. my sinus was pestering me again so, boo! but i was glad to be back home coz i missed the hubs and the kids so much too.
never brought home the millions (almost did though, sana di ako tumigil, i was winning the first night, the machine kept giving me bonus, went from 40 to 500! at panay ang sigaw ko ng wheel! of! FORTYUN! krissy style hahahaha! had to retire coz that was around 3am and kaka-land lang namin. shiyet, next time), but i did bring home a ton of photos and good memories.
ill come back sin city i swear. next time i wont stop till i get the big pot! another one crossed out from my list :) oh and ate, where's my jumpshot :)
