Day 1.....we went big....as always! Met most of the group in the lobby of the Rio for drinks right when we got there...then headed to McFaddens for dinner. We hung out at the Rio for a while playing some slots, collecting beads, drinking drinks...enjoying the early evening! We headed to the strip to meet up with the rest of the group. Some of Kenny's friends from the squad came up...Sparks met us at Paris...some friends from NY also met us there. Our intent was to hang out there for a while, then move on. We ended up staying there most of the night. Secured some seats near the dance floor at a popular lounge, and nestled in......danced all night!! So much fun! The best was when good old MJ started playing. Brad of course cleared the floor and showed off his moves. To our surprise, he had some competition! Kenny's friend from the squad had some of his own moves too! It was hilarious watching those 2!!! People were coming up and asking if they could join our group.....we had a BLAST! After Paris, we headed back to the Rio area...and walked across the street to the Gold Dust to find the famous Buddha. Eventually we found him....all rubbed his belly for luck....and Tammy danced with him! :) After that we decided it was time to turn in....as we still had 3 more days in Vegas!!
Day 2......after some nice sleep in....we played the slots some more. Vince and I headed to the Palazzo to check in our friends there and ended up hanging out there for a while. Didn't do much during the day because we had the concert that night. We did an early dinner at the Rio buffett, then took cabs over to the MGM in prep for the concert. We met up with everyone at a wine bar for some drinks (there were 22 of us all together, but some didn't meet up before). We headed in in groups and enjoyed the next 4 hours of concert madness! After the concert we all went our separate ways to gamble & just hang out!
Day 3.....we went to celebrate Mom's birthday at the Steakhouse at Circus Circus. A little known gem in Vegas! It was a great dinner....we had pre-dinner jello shot...slightly unusual before going in for a great steak dinner! :) After dinner we headed to the Palazzo for more gambling. Mom and Vince had GREAT luck there...winning pretty big! They both hit winning streaks on the same type of machine right next to each other. Great way to end a trip!!!
