TP and I went to Vegas! We flew out on Jet Blue on August 11, 2022. JP gave us a ride to the bus terminal in Woburn. I pre bought the tickets. I also had the tickets on my phone, but printed them off just in case. we managed to drop off our one large bag to go under the plane and got through security. the security guard looked at my passport and looked at me and said with a grin, your hair is different! I said, well yes this is the natural color, he then said .. oh, i have been trying to get my mom to stop coloring her hair, it looks good. :)
Well, Terry got pulled aside going through security. again! I keep telling him he needs a doctor note for all his implants!! He wa so upset.
Anyway, once we got through the security we went to the gate, found a place to eat. sat and had a yummy dinner and a drink.
our plane moved the time up to leave and our plane at new york was delayed. which was fine as we were nervous about getting on the plane from NY on time. that plane was late due to being delayed coming in from ARUBA! We were able to board and get settled. we sat on the tarmac for 45 min waiting to be allowed to get in line and then another 30 minutes to take off. crazy. it was a long and miserable flight. i tried to sleep but had a hard time doing so. When we finally landed in vegas, it was another 20 minutes before they let us off the plane.
We grabbed a taxi, after getting our bag, and it cost us 45.00 to get to the Flamingo Hotel. He went the long way! damn I did read that you had to ask them to not take the highway!
So we checked in about 1:20 and were in our room at 1:30 am ... beautiful room. we then went downstairs and gambled. We had a blast, won all the money we lost and then some. great time.
After getting some sleep, we got up showered, got dressed, went to grab some coffee and gamble a little. we then packed and went to our timeshare behind the flamingo. we stayed at the Grand Hilton Flamingo. the room was not ready and we put our bags with the bell hop and went to have breakfast at the Flamingo, Carlos and Charlies, yum sooo good.
we were able to get in or room by 1 pm. after that we unpacked and settled in. we did not have a car so we decided to try the Uber eats app! we ordered some grocery's and they were delivered to us with in a few hours. With no car, this was much cheaper than a taxi!!
The pool was great as well as the spa pool, nice and hot and the pool was cool/cold.
