Leaving For Las Vegas 10/2006

We're on our way to Vegas. Weather looks good and so does traffic.

10:45 - We leave but we have errands to run.

11:15 - Finished errands and I got some Coke and donuts. Laurie got coffee.

12:00 - We're on our way. Laurie likes to chit-chat too much.

1:15 pm - We're in Victorville getting lunch at Taco Bell. Also switching off cause I'm getting sleepy.

3:00 pm - Stopped at Baker and guess what? The Bun Boy is gone. Now its a Bob's Big Boy.

3:30 pm - passed by Stateline. There is still a lot of construction going on. It's going to slow you down if there is traffic.

5:30 pm - arrive at the Venetian it took forever to drive down the strip. The problem is that traffic bottlenecks at one point and that's at Harmon st. Cars have to fight with pedestrians because they will not stop and they will jaywalk. Avoid going northbound on the strip from Tropicana to Harmon.

5:45 pm - check in arrive at suite. There's people in our room. OMG! Hotel will hear about this.

6:20 pm - wait for valet. We left late because we're complaing to the hotel staff. It pays to have a wife who complains.

6:30 pm - car arrive. Off to Walmart to pick up stuff we forgot.

7:20 pm - arrive at Orleans buffet. Buffet was about $30 for the two of us and it wasn't that bad. Nice variety of food to chose from. Lots of locals here.

8:00 pm - poker time. Did OK.

11:45 pm - went to hotel.

Tomorrow is my conference.
