Got up about 6:00 a.m. without an alarm or wake-up call. Kind of amazing actually because that's when I normally wake up three time zones east. Has my internal clock adjusted to the local time after three nights?
Anyway, I got a text from the s-i-l at 6:15 a.m. letting me know that he was ready to roll. I told him to meet me down in the Bellagio Casino in the nickel video poker area.
We played some terrible video poker for a while, waiting for a cocktail waitress--to no avail. Apparently I hadn't learned my lesson earlier in the trip. We finally gave up and headed down to the Avis Focus. (Still 0 of 5 Royal Flushers for the Bellagio cocktail waitressess in the cheap seats).
Off we headed out of the self-parking garage onto something--The Strip, Flamingo?--I'm not very good with street names, but I'm great on landmarks (4.5 out of 5 Donner Party Guides). Anyway, as we waited at the stoplight to get onto whatever street it was, we got to watch a boffo slugfest on the sidewalk in front of Caesars. I thought the two young men were messing around until I realized that they were swinging pretty hard for just messing around.
