August 22, 1998: Las Vegas






We had a delicious buffet at Harrah's.   The dining room was decorated with different fruits and vegetables.   I put 25 cents in a slot machine and won $15.   Of course, I gambled it away and lost.   We went through Barbary Coast, Ballys, MGM Casino/theme park, New York, New York, etc.  It was so hot outside.  Toured the Coca Cola World where we got samples of Coke from all over the world.   I didn't realize they made different sodas around the world.   Italy's soda tasted horrible.    Went through the M&M store.

It was pretty cool to go on the outdoor escalators across the street.  Our walk back to the hotel was miserable.  Kara looked like she was going to faint.   We walked through the Mirage.    "Sigfried and Roy" was cancelled tonight due to technical difficulties.   We had dinner at this authentic Japanese restaurant where you sit on the floor and eat and take your shoes off.    Then, we went to the New York, New York casino and I got this hilarious photo taken of me. I got to pick out the body and they put my head on it.  I picked the picture of a gal laying on a blackjack table with black lingerie, silk gloves, and a cigar.  We were all laughing so hard as there was a TV screen that faced out so others could see it. They were laughing, too.  

Walked through Monte Carlo and Caesars Palace.  

Went to the Pirate show outside our hotel, Treasure Island.    That was pretty cool.
