Had a fantastic time, everything I imagined it to be in fairness. The hotels, the scenery, the lifestyle was outta this world. Give it a couple of weeks and im gonna miss it even more, but need more money first.
The weather was great 40-45degrees every day and with it being dry heat, its not too bad to sit in as long as you keep drinking and stay hydrated. "Water one dollar up" and down the strip was a life saver.
The hotels were quite special, although each casino was pretty much the same, the themes were very impressive. The shopping malls in each hotel were massive and although expensive, they were good to walk through and do a bit of shopping. MGM Grand was good but I would like to go to different hotels every time I went, room was great and had a nice view. Pool area was good, we never went wet republic once though. Each pool was different, but we tended to hang around the quieter pools though and just sunba the. I was well impressed with the venetian and Paris hotels for their themes. I went on one of the rides on top of the stratosphere which s**t me up but was well worth it and scored me some man points.
EDIT: They have discontinue the prima card too, so I couldnt use it
The birds were fiiiit, it seemed like almost every young girl who was there had a fantastic body and shades were a must as I couldnt stop purvin on them all day. Being English was the best thing, they loved my accent so much and so I began to play on it more and more through the holiday and ultimately got my rewards
from some nice American, Canadian and Norwegian girls. It never helped that my mate has a bird and so was a shite wing man for me, I could hav done so much better if he was single too. One thing about americans that I dont get is tattoos..... I don't mind the odd tattoo here and there (such as bottom of their back or something seductive beneath their belly button/above their hip) but some lads and girls were just covered in them and I find it ugly when a girls back is just a tattoo. Overall though, you find better girls there than Magaluf.
I went on some good trips. I did the helicopter Grand Canyon tour which was the nuts, landing at the bottom and seeing some breath taking views. Went to the hoover dam which was good, although was quite hungover that day. Went LA which slightly disappointed me but we never really knew where to go and besides going round Hollywood and sunset boulevard, Beverley hills, there never really seemed much to do. I saw Lance Burtons magic show at the Monte Carlo which was good and Thunder from Down Under at Excaliber (dont ask, but it involved girls) but the best thing was spearmint rhinos.....picked up in a limo, free entry and through the back door, 2 dances and 3 vodka red bulls cost me $70!!!! What a great night
Gambling wasnt good, I played poker at tables on 4 nights but left empty handed every time and the machines I weren't much better.
Food and drink was ok. It was nice enough but frikkin expensive, 2 bottles of beer was around $20 so pissed me off. I know if you are gambling you get them for free, but we never took advantage of that and by the second week we brought our own alcohol in.
Overall, it was great and id defo recommend people to go, especially malc and macca who were both thinking bout it, but if I was to go id want to go in a bigger group.
