David and I walked around The Strip. Our first destination was to get breakfast. We settled for the McDonald's by the Venitian Hotel. That McDonald's is the busiest McDonald's on the West Coast. After that we went looking for a Walgreen's to buy eye drops and a nail file, while waiting to check in to our new room. On the way we walked to a Tickets for Less stand and bought tickets for a Hoover Dam tour on Monday. After, we walked to Planet Hollywood and went shopping at the Miracle Mile Mall. There we picked up some souvenirs for ourselves and Breelyn.
We arrived back at the hotel at noonish and cleaned up our room and made sure that we had everything. Changing rooms was sooo well worth it. Our new room was on the 13th floor and we were by the elevators in room 13100. It was soo clean and bigger. I was happy with our decision. After getting there, we took a nap and relaxed. We were both tired from barely sleeping the night before in fear that someone might bang down our door.
After waking up, we decided that it was still early enough for lunch specials at certain restaurants. We walked down to PF Changs and enjoyed their lunch special, which was still huge.
Sunday was Cesar's Palace evening and we walked around the Forum Shops and did a bit of gambling. The Cesar's Palace was beautiful. The owners invested a lot of money on the hotel.
After Ceaser's Palace we went to Freemont St. We figured out the buses (aka THE DUCE). The bus system made things so much better. Our backs were killing us from all the walking and we were tired.
Freemont St. was interesting. I was kinda disappointed to learn that the WELCOME TO VEGAS sign isn't that big and the GIANT COWBOY wasn't that big either. We did some shopping and some gambling down there. At the top of the hour (10pm) we watched the light show. It was pretty impressive. After that, we headed back to our hotel room.
