• Day 20

    24. august 2017, Forenede Stater ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

    Up 8ish. Tea & biscuits from buffet yesterday.

    Out on Deuce to Fremont Experience - the original Las Vegas. Bus very busy and took ages. Fremont is a dump. Might look better at night when the lights are twinkling but it's decidedly grotty in the day time. Lot of dodgy looking people around.
    Had brunch in Hennessys pub - club sandwich and omelette. Coffee and hottish water & teabag with free refill. €35.

    Back on bus - home at 1pm. Not impressed. We had intended to go last night but the endless pour had other ideas!

    Regroup, checked in for tomorrow, shower and out.

    Got cash, booked for Bronx Wanderers show for 5.30 tonight - $118 for two.

    Had couple of beers - one $10 back street. Ridiculously expensive.
    Went into casino with $30 flutter money gift from Dave & Sue. We only know roulette so went to quiet table. Minimum bet $15 so lost our money in 2 spins. Ouch.

    Then to Geordano's. Looked really expensive but happy hour so only $6ish for two. People next to us had HUGE deep pizza and we were quite envious. It looked delicious. Next news, the guy said they had ordered too much and offered us half the pizza. We said take it with you but they were off to a show. We offered some payment but they wouldn't accept it so we took the pizza and demolished it. The biggest, deepest pizza I've ever seen and it was lovely.

    Off to show 5.30. Vinny Adinolfi is the star. He was a record producer for some big names in his day and now has show with his sons. Was really good - musicians and singing were excellent Only lasted 1.5 hours so done by 7pm.

    Went to New York bar. Singer on there and band after he finished. Both very good. Pleasant evening.

    Home 10.30. Glass of wine and bed.
