Finally I made 80

I celebrated to the maximum.

Day one Southpoint Rightious Brothers

Day two not so great went to Alexes Show cancelled without

notice Hassan with Groupons. Yet great ribs at Ellis Island 

Day three Palms buffet Then Jersey Boys tribute at Orleans

good version.To me better then one I saw at Paris years ago.

Nice size theater 

Day four Gospel brunch Then Dinner at Binions wonderful.

They allow me and my son to share the 22 oz steak then add

a side ( already excludes potato and veggies) Of course

we had salads each. Then they gave me a birthday dessert.

with discount little over $100. Of course gave generous tip.

Day 5 Spa day.   Dinner show at Strat Top of The World

also a free dessert.

Day 6. Breakfast and check out Fountainebleau Then drive

to Border City Early dinner at Emerald City.Lot of food OK.

Not sure my favorite. Next time I like Magnolias better.

Day seven. Sphere ( see my comments on seating challenge)

Then dinner at Wynns steak house Lake of Dreams. Love

it plus they allowed us to share a large steak. Free Birthday dessert.

Day 8. An my actual Birthday my son in law gave me gift certificate 

for Affil Tower restaurant how could I not love it. Also free dessert 

Then to lady GaGa See my note on poor seating great show.

Day 9 Drive out to M casino look and gamble Then back to

South Point buffet and Rita Ruder show Love this old school

theater Not a bad seat in the house.

Day 10 Breakfast at Giada.

Of course throughout the week gambling I think I broke even 

My son won $500.

Last return trip See my message in transportation not

great Yet the 10 days were over the top Not my usual.

Still used coupons and Groupons my son shares expenses 

and got comped Executive room at Flamingo 
one more thing on one of those evenings we went on The High Roller

Hopefully I can do it all over again at 81.

My son already booked at Paris new Tower. I hear good and not 

so good Yet mostly comped So can't complain 

 

 

Wow, a big Happy Birthday, a big one!  Hope I make it.  3 more years.  Wonderful TR, concise yet informative.  I'd have loved that Jersey Boys show big time.  Grew up on FV and the FS, loved them.

Happy belated 80th Birthday, Patricia.  My mom turned 80 last October, and my brothers and I took her for the week to Washington D.C.  

 

Thanks for the great trip report and so glad you had a great time.  Be well. 

Thanks for the wishes I had a wonderful time.

with doing so much hard to highlight. 
I did add concerns about MGM Park Dolby theaters tiny seats

also Sphere seating a challenge for older folks.

All the food was high end and plus. Even South Point buffet.

 


What a great birthday trip!! 

Happy Birthday! 
Great usage of your birthday to get those free desserts. So glad you had a great time with family.

I'm sure you'll be there for many more.

Looks like you really went all out! What a great 80th birthday trip/experience: all that stuff that Vegas is supposed to be good for (food; shows) and lots of free desserts!

 

May your second 80 years on this earth be just as much fun!

Congratulations on joining the elite Octogenarian squad. Looks

like you really had a great time.  I hope you have a similarly

joyous birthday next year.
