We have been so excited to get out of town for months. Have 24 days lined up between Vegas, Laughlin, and Phoenix. trip is jan 16-feb 8
Flight out of Detroit was ok, Delta believes in packing them in like sardines. There was no leg room and I was scrunched in between hubby and another big guy. Plane was late taking off and we were dreading the long flight. Usually, we are so excited that the flight takes forever anyway but this time pilots were fighting head winds and being late leaving..I was amazed that we landed just 5 minutes offf target arrival time. The pilots made up time once they cleared the mountains..
Dollar car/ no compacts so upgraded to a fusion...nice car
Imperial Palace for 10 nights. I got an upgrade to the luv tub for a small fee prior to leaving. Thought this might help hubby with his health problems. When we checked in, for couple dollars more we got a King Suite with living room, wet bar, seperate bedroom. Nice for meeee!!!!! Hubby can get up have coffee and let me sleep..
We checked in, thru the bags in the room and hit the ground running. Played at IP with not much in winnings. Moved to Harrahs and stayed even...I went to a quarter 2x3x4x machine and on the third pull got 2x4x2x for 4200 quarters. wahoo!!!!way to start the trip...Hubby always plays this machine and when I came across it I thought what the hell I would give it a try. Now Rick was somewhere else and I wanted him to see the hit so I waited for him to come round...People came up high fived, congratulated me on the hit...I was excited to say the least. When he finally showed up the look of amazement/disgust lol was evident. He had been playing that machine for years and never hit like that...lol
I was really dragging butt since it was 24 hrs with no sleep and finally had to give in to some shut eye.
Hoping that I had not won first night and the rest would be all down hill I was really upset that just had to get some sleep. Hubby was already on overtime and I knew he needed rest.
I should point out that my hubby has some serious health issues so we will be driving, taxi or bus...No long walks without stopping. This is going to be ok but it puts a crimp in walking anywhere for just the thought of going. 40 years of smoking and a bad back have finally took its toll.
