Taity’s 50th

Boys weren’t back too late last night, but still another lazy start to the day for us all, we meet for breakfast around 11.30, it’s Susan’s 50th today so hotel for breakfast, lovely steak and eggs for Janet and I, burritos for the boys, Omelette for Andy T and Susan opts for the stack of pancakes, which is massive, no surprise that it defeats us all. Then get a phone call off Doris (Grace) she had taken Janet’s car to uni in Birmingham, and some scroat has stolen it, she is upset but it’s only a piece of metal. On to the bar for Susan to open her cards and presents. She does well for an auld bird. We book tickets for the ice hockey tonight, time to wander down to the Vegas sign for a few photos, slow steady walk back via The Vegas Harley Dealer and Mandalay Bay hotel with a pit stop, back to the room and a nanna nap for me.
We meet downstairs at 6.30 but after a small panic as neither Andy T or I can access the hockey tickets via the app, we go to the stadium anyway and the ticket office sort us out. The atmosphere at the Ice hockey is typical American big loud and brash, but they put on a great show and we all really enjoy it, getting the full experience of overtime and a shootout that Vegas win to the delight of the fans, 60 minutes of Hockey takes up 3hrs of our night but worth it. We make our way back to the hotel via a Bar, couple of beers and a little roulette before we head to bed at 1.00am.
Busier day tomorrow as we visit Fremont Street.Read more
