Not long back from my week in Vegas. Tried a bit more of a relaxed approach this time, spending 2/3 days at the pool which we didn't do at all last time and it served us quite well, went out a bit later and stayed out later. It was ace waking up at 6:45am and LFC kicking off in 15 minutes... a bit mad but strangely enjoyable and then having the whole day to enjoy it. Same with the CL game - woke up, went and got some breakfast and then LFC were on at 12pm and you have the whole day then to buzz off the result. Not sure i could do it every week but it was a nice take.
Couldn't really eat for the first 2/3 days - was having small things and none of it agreeing with my stomach so ended up not eating a lot. It's really hard to eat well there. I didn't do any buffets but went to the supermarket to stock up on fruit for the room and to snack on throughout the days and man, bar a few bananas and apples, there was nothing. Ended up buying Twizzlers, Cheetos and Milk Duds for the room!
After a few days our appetite came back and we had some nice meals. Eggslut in The Cosmospolitan was lovely, as was a steak dinner in Delmonicos in the Venetian. Most surprisingly was a place called Virgils - a BBQ restaurant, which was gorgeous. Far too much as normal but the meat was unreal. Oh and we tried that pizza place - Pizza Rock in Freemont St as it has gained a reputation as the best pizza in Vegas and that was unreal.
Didn't enjoy Freemont St as much this time around. Unless you're in the casinos gambling there, it's hard to spend more than a few hours there.
Definitely need to find a local bar with Shuffleboard at home - what a class game!
