Good Old Fremont


We're finishing up our Vegas sight-seeing with a Fremont street visit. It used to be the real main street of Vegas back in the day. Now it's just a tourist attraction. What would the gangsters think of that? Some of them are probably rolling over in their concrete graves. It's got a really cool light show with a screen that runs the whole street overhead with projections of pictures and stuff on it. If you're ever in the mood for some cheap tables, this is the place to be. You can play tables for as little a buck! Not that I have to worry about that too much just yet. I've still got quite a hefty bank account.

I think that's it for Vegas. I know there's still a lot more to see, but we're ready to move on.

Wedding


After a very long engagement, we got hitched! Donkey and I had a double wedding at Lake Las Vegas. That is to say that we married Dragon and Fiona respectively, not each other. It was a great day, perfect weather, and many of our fairly tale friends came to join in the celebration. Wish you could be here!

By the way, we were informed that our friends and family might get some visitors stopping to by to check in and keep things safe. After our little stint with the government, you can't be too careful caring for friends and family.

That's all for now. We're thinking about where we want to go for our honeymoons. Maybe we'll see a few more Vegas sites and the Hoover Dam first. Life is good!

Off To See the Wizard


Well, New Year's has passed and we enjoyed every minute of it. But now we're off to see more Vegas sites.

Today we went to the MGM and checked it out. Did you know that the MGM is the largest hotel in Vegas and the second largest in the world with over 5,000 rooms? They have real lions there! Rrrrrrrrrooarrrrrrr! Finally, someone my size. Ha! We also got to see a show, one of those circus olay things. It was pretty cool.

Since we were at the MGM, I wanted to see the Wizard and ask him for a word limitation for Donkey of 2,000 a day. I asked several people where to find him. I told Donkey we'd ask him for parfaits. We were led up this really long, creepy staircase and then we entered a dark room with a big curtain. Next thing you know, Donkey is snooping around and getting into trouble as usual, and we find out the Wizard is just a little guy with no gumption. So my dream of peace and quiet was gone.

It was still a fun place to visit.

Trystin' The Year Away


Happy New Year! Woo hoo!
We're still here at the Wynn. We went golfing on Tuesday (yes, I am an Ogre of many facets--I golf) and ordered in-room massages after all that hard work.
Last night was crazy. We went to Tryst and partied all night and into the morning. There's a waterfall and lake inside the club! A lake people! Needless to say, as I am writing this, I have just finished breakfast. Ha! This is the life.

Vegas Baby!


This place is like Disneyland on drugs 24-7! It's amazing. You can walk around with a drink, even on the street, you can gamble, go to shows, do nothing at all, people watch (humans are interesting), go dancing (Donkey's favorite), go on roller coasters, see the Eiffel Tower, the Statue of Liberty, and awesome hotels that are larger than some European cities.

We're staying at the Wynn. I especially like room service, the hot tub, and the naked chick statue by the waterfall. This place is off the hook! After our last, er, trip, lets just say we'll be high rollers for a little while. We've only been here a few days and we've already seen the whole hotel, watched the show (La Reve, niiiiiiiiiice. Women dancing around in water - need I say more?), and toured the Ferrari-Maserati museum. Gotta run. Off for more fun before Christmas!
