It feels good to be home...

Well, the Vegas trip is over and I have two days to recoup before heading back to work. It feels good to be home.
But we did find what Mark called "Lindsey's casino". On Wednesday we went to the Wynn for dinner after Mark played poker at the Bellagio. I had heard through the grape vine that the owner, Steve Wynn, was vegan and had a lot of vegan options at the restaurant. The casino and hotel it self was relatively classy, had a nice feel to it. I went up to the hotel lobby and asked about vegan friendly restaurants and she proudly handed me a guide to the hotel and explained there were 30 restaurants in the place and EACH had its own vegan menu. I was impressed. We had a great dinner at the Lakeside Grill, I had a vegan mushroom pizza. Then Allison met up with us and we had more drinks and watched the lake shows, which were really cool. We also finally watched the bellagio water shows, and they were GORGEOUS, saw a ton in one night.
Thursday we went to the Grand Canyon...it was a long day. We rented a car, left at 8am, and didn't get back until 8pm. We saw Hoover Dam on the way too, it was a nice side trip, although too short. Then that night we got to see Cirque du Soleil's "Mystere". Being a resident Allison gets half off on shows, so she got us half price tickets, and we were in the front row!! It was a great show.
Friday was our last day. Mark went to the Rio, I felt really bad for him since we walked a long ways to get there only to find the poker room empty...I guess they are only busy when the world series of poker is there. Then he went to the Wynn for the afternoon, we had another dinner at Encore, it was ok but not quite as good as the one at Lakeside Grill. We met up with Allison for some more drinks and called it a night, which was a little rough since we went to bed at 12am and got up at 4am to catch our flight.
I caught up on sleep on the plane. All better now, and time to get back on to Boston time, glad I missed another snow storm!
