So much Vegas

Here are the highlights:

Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill. This was amazing. Had one big meal out in Vegas and LOVED it. Had the Mahi Mahi, shared the banana/creme/ gelato dessert and a pulled pork quaesadilla with avocado. I can't describe how good it was, but it was up there with my favorite meals of all time from: Bish, Hamachi House, DeMarizios and other fine establishments that ruled. Richard was a great server.

Golf with Tony at the Wild Horse.

Learning how to play craps at Sunset Station. I actually enjoyed this game as much as roulette and it could take over. http://www.sunsetstation.com/hotel/. The staff were amazing and a lot of fun. They spent time learning us the game so we could have a blast. I broke even at Sunset and lost at the Golden Nugget and Excalibur. Damn you Shad!

Golden Nugget- upgraded us to a huge suite.. So awesome! Check this blog on it. http://www.vegas4visitors.com/hotels/detail/goldennugget.htm. Definitely the best hotel on Fremont St.

Spending quality time with the wife walking around and just hanging out in Vegas.

Hoover Dam and Red Rocks Canyon were great. If you go on one day trip, hit these two places up. http://www.redrockcanyonlv.org/

Lillies at the Nugget
MGM Grand to walk around
Little restaurant in back of Mandalay Bay

IHOP in Henderson and our super waitress, Michelle. You rock!

Didn't enjoy- Most arcades on Fremont St not including the Nugget.
Stay away from the Paradise Buffet at Sam Boyd's - gross
Crazy people selling time shares on the street
