Day 6
Up early because 10 hours of sleep is more than enough! We went to Sadelle’s for breakfast. I had scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns and toast and Dave had a huge omelette with hash browns and toast.
We have $500 resort credit to use and we aren’t even making a dent in it because we are eating in other places! After breakfast, we walked over to Aria and played a little in there. I think we both walked away in profit for a change and moved onto Park MGM for an hour. Nothing much happening, but again we didn’t lose anything.
Around lunchtime we headed back to Bellagio to see if the Sportsbook was showing the Miami F1. Result - TV screens, a couple of drinks and a bit of video poker. $1.25 a bet and won 4-of-a-kind twice, totalling around $220.
Whilst Dave carried on playing, I went for a walk in the sunshine to watch the fountains. No matter how many times you’ve seen them, they never get tired and I hope they remain a part of Vegas for a long time.
We went over to Cosmopolitan for an hour and randomly ran into a lovely lady and her husband, who I have known for a few years via social media only. We knew each other was in Vegas but hadn’t arranged to meet up (that’s much too sociable for us)! We had a nice chat, and it was great to finally meet her.
I needed to sort out suitcases for the cruise, so mid-afternoon I went back to the room to decide what to pack and wear. Two suitcases for the cruise and two to stay in the car…hopefully I’ve got it right.
We had moved Nine Fine Irishmen at NYNY to tonight, and after packing and getting ready, we walked over. Gambled for an hour in NYNY before dinner, but it was kicking my arse and I gave up pretty quickly. There is only so much begging you can do to will those pots to close, those bangers to explode, or those trains to drop! I’m not sure what I actually feel about NFI. It’s relatively dark inside and unless your eyesight is exceptional, you can’t even read the menu! I went for the fish and chips, and Dave had the burger and fries. The fish is massive and you get two pieces (at home we share one from the chippie)! They must throw so much away because I don’t think I’ve ever seen an empty plate. Charged dinner to our room so that used up some more of the resort credit and then moved onto Aria. By this point I had had enough, Aria was cold, I didn’t have a jumper, the buttons on my dress were popping (I haven’t even that much I promise, so I’m blaming it on hormones) and I wasn’t in the mood to be gambling. I found Dave (who was in the middle of a Buffalo bonus, which would win him another hand pay) and then we went back to Bellagio and I went to bed. An early start tomorrow - cruise embarkation day!
