Vegas....
My sister Barb isn’t one of those “Whales” they talk about in Vegas – she classifies herself as a “Fat Guppy”. Whatever she is, she gets “comps” from the MGM/Mirage group. Her latest “comps” were a suite and meals from NY NY Casino along with limo rides to and from the airport. I (supplied with a “Barb Comp-ed Plane ticket”) went along for ride. Our windows were about 5 rows down on the right corner of the Empire Tower. Instead of giving my money to the NY NY slots on Thursday I decided to give my money to one of the local tour companies, Big Horn Tours. I took the Hoover Dam, Grand Canyon, Skywalk Hummer tour. It was a lot of fun. I was lucky enough to be grouped with a nice couple from Brazil. Photos are here….
