Our Blog

Read at your own risk!
The chronological account of our travels.
Like most full-time RVers we'll babble on about all the mundane aspects
of our daily lives. Some will find it interesting, and others will
use it as a sleeping aid. Either way, we've done our part.

June 23 - 24
We’d
received notice that the power would be off Thursday morning 6:00am till
whenever. Knowing that it would be hot in the RV without power we decided
to splurge and get a hotel room. Mac booked us two nights at the El Cortez
Cabana Suites for about $25 a night. Not a bad deal at all!
We arrived Wednesday evening and the whole place is so 60’s retro and it’s not
that the place hasn’t been done since then either. The whole place was
redone recently and they went very 60’s with the décor. It is quite
interesting.
Thursday afternoon we drove back to the RV and checked that the refrigerator
worked properly and it did. We adjusted the air-conditioner and headed
back to town.
We ate dinner one evening at The Flame Restaurant at the El Cortez.
June 25 – 27:
We had reservations at Bally’s on the Strip for this weekend. After
checking out of our room at the El Cortez we ran around and did a few errands
before checking in at Bally’s. I played video poker to my hearts content
but unfortunately no royals this week.
We ate at the Le Provencal Restaurant at Paris one evening and it was
outstanding. I had an excellent soup and a chicken dish both with parmesan
cheese, so tasty! The soup was so great and I’ll be searching for a recipe
and recreate it at home.
Saturday afternoon we went to see
Mac King and the show was so entertaining and funny. We had a great
time. We would definitely see this show again some time in the future.
That evening we went to see the Frank Marino’s Divas Show at the Imperial
Palace. It was also a good show. Mac enjoyed the show more than me.
I wasn’t as entertained as he was.
We checked out Sunday night and headed back to the RV. We were tired and
so happy to get home to our own bed.
June 28:
We had dinner plans with our friends Dan and Barb this evening. So after
work today we headed to downtown Vegas to the
4 Queens Casino. We ate at Hugo’s
Cellar. It was a wonderful dining experience. There were a lot of
little touches that made the whole meal relaxing and wonderful. We would
definitely eat there again!
We walked around the casino and noticed that it didn’t have a smoky smell like
many casinos do. We finally figured out that it’s because the doors are
open onto Fremont Street and it lets a lot of fresh air in. We’re thinking
of coming here and playing some in the future so that we can earn points for
these wonderful meals.
Nothing much to report for the last couple of days in June; we worked and
relaxed at home.
