We spent the morning round the pool again which was bloody lovely. Then headed out to the Red Rock area to find the PetsMart and Costco stores. I bought this really cool ihome gadget which means that the radio/CD under the kitchen cabinet can be upgraded to an iPod player as well - how cool is that? Costco is really weird, its just like being in the one in Reading it's so similar - apart from the prices of course!
Then onto Costco to buy my beloved furbies so treats so that they'll speak to me when I get home - I cant wait to see them again.
We then decided to eat in the Stardust - in particular the Tony Roma's in this casino. The Stardust was built/opened in 1958 and on the 31st of October this year will be closed forever - a bit of history gone, so we made this pilgrimage to the casino as it wont be there next year - and the ribs were as good as ever. It seems a real shame but you could tell that it's on it way out, the staff (not Tony Romas) we rude and unattentive (and could hardly speak English) and the whole casino was completely full of freaks and weirdos - well even more that usual!
We then had a look in the Wynn and although it's obviously a lot more classy than most casino's on the strip at the end of the day it's still a casino/hotel on the seedy strip of Las Vegas - I dont believe class is something that can be created here - it's tacky and that's why we love it!
Went back to gamble a bit (its a long walk back from the Stardust) and played Reel 'em In as usual. Had a bad run but was more fascinated by this prostitute. It was so obvious, she was pretending to play a slot whilst continually talking and taking calls on her mobile. After about half an hour this middle aged, grey, non-descript male walks in, goes straight up to her and takes her arm and the thrash out details (and I presume prices) in a corner of the casino - amazing people watching!
