HERE is Day 3, Sunday 26.04.09.

I know it's a bit long and boring.

Rubbish! The more detail the better for all of us.

Aw thanks pebbles. I love reading everyone's TR's and there have been a couple of very good, very long ones on TA recently. One by BRguy33 was just hilarious! The only ones I glaze over at are when every hand of poker is described in detail.

When do you arrive, is it around 4th May? I'm losing track with so many people coming and going. Looking forward to our meet.

We arrive around 7 pm on 4th May. Funny that it has flown by up til now and then it's begun to drag. I just want to get there now.

Keep up the excellent reports, and I'll see you on the 6th.

Really enjoyed your TR ferf. Thanks for the info on the massage at the Hawaiian Marketplace. Is it the place where the Chinese people do reflexology? That's all there was prices for on their board and no mention of a back massage so I'm not sure it's the right place.

Hi - yes, that's it...I've been there the last 4 or 5 trips (starting with just feet because everyone knows what a beating our feet take in Vegas) but added shoulders and back the last couple of trips. Prices are the same for reflexology and back. They have a special for 45 minutes for $40 that I've taken advantage of the last two trips.

I totally agree - I'm loving your report Luci (sorry Get Nuts wasn't as kind to you - if you ever play and get the bonus my experience says extra free spins are under the 2nd door from the right more than 50% of the time ) Sorry about the cashout voucher, I live in fear of doing that myself...and know for certainty that if I saw a machine with credits on it (well, more than a few that were abandoned), I would sit down and take out the ticket and sit there holding onto it hoping the owner would come back and so no one could come and take it for themselves...but they say there are people who just wander around looking for opportunities to snaffle a forgotten ticket. I hope that karma gets them.

If anyone is interested I have 3 restaurant.com vouchers that expire 08.08.09

2 x $25 for Pampas Churrascaria at Miracle Mile at PH (though since I bought both of them, probably would have to go to people who would use them at least a month apart)...should probably also note that after buying these I realised that this restaurant is one that is usually listed at tix4dinner which may be a better option.

1 x The Melting Pot on Charleston...fondue place that some of my friends have raved about but we still haven't made it to.

If you're interested pm me with your email and I'll send them on.

PS Anybody seen this before, I came accross it by accident last month, its a shrine right on the strip at the front of Ceasars, it looked incredible maybe because I wasn't expecting to come accross it, never heard anybody mention it before.

Have to say I have never noticed it - though like many things in Vegas I may have walked right by it a million times.

And I was surprised to see a Serendipity 3 outside Caesars! I love the one in NYC and had I known it was there before we left it would have factored into my planning.

The shrine has been at Caesars for a long time, but was only moved to that area a couple of years ago, I believe. I don't know where it was before, but it's very pretty, isn't it?
