We have arrived in Sin City.
It was a bit shocking to get up at 3am in order to make it the airport and then arrive in Las Vegas at 9:15am. Of course, it felt like 12:15 to us and we were HUNGRY. By the time we made it to the hotel I was downright pissy. I have slightly low blood sugar and when I don't eat for prolonged periods my migraine kicks up and I become less than pleasant. Ah well. After a sandwich it all was better.
Here is The Plaza (taken from Fremont Street):

After checking out the machines here we took a walk down Fremont Street. I had pretty good luck here:

I had a lot of fun here, but didn't even come close to trying all the games I wanted:

| The Four Queens |
Serious hunger attacked (again) while we were playing at The Four Queens, so we quit for dinner. We sat looking out on the casino. Man, it was pretty, but it got to be a bit noisy after a while. Here is the view from the table:

I know you can't see any of the games (to know what they are), but it makes for a pretty picture. I had pretty good luck on the game with the round red sign over it, second from the left, in the next to the back row. That entire row of games is a max bet of $.75 a spin. I love being able to afford to play at Max. I hit the tiny jackpot. It was only $25, but it was still pretty fun when the whistle blew.
I took a bunch more photos of the casinos waking back down Fremont Street. I had to go to Walgreens to try and buy some distilled water for mom. They were out:( So, while she was checking in, I snapped all of the pics.
