    Ok so quick update. They only made it to the Venetian last night. On their way to vp and Wynn my dad decided to stop in Outback Steakhouse. I was like really mom?! You have an outback at home, I coulda recommended a better streak restaurant! They made it to vp and played and didn't hit anything there just lost. When they came out they decided it was too late to make the right turn to go to the Wynn so they headed back to harrahs. They lost more at harrahs and are down. They said only few hundred each but I don't believe them lol. I'm sure they lost more than that and my dad said he expects to lose some he comes to play for fun. So they did get a good nights rest. Surprising bc usually my dad will stay half the night playing.

    Today when I talked to them they were at Walmart bc my dad ran out of clothes. He thought my mom packed his other stack of clothes he had ready bc his suitcase was closed. He just assumed and ended up leaving them on the dresser at home. So they were just chilling and planning a night a Fremont tonight. Hopefully they can win some back there. Idk maybe they aren't down that much bc mom said they may stay another 2 days.

    I told them about my post on here and they both laughed and glad that you all are following along. They will try snap some pics on big wins if they remember to and will be glad to share. They also thanked all of you for the well wishes!

    I will also respond to the comments soon. Thanks for posting them!

    HHH! I forgot to pack all of my shirts once for an 8 night trip to Vegas. Had to change flights in Memphis and found a PGA store that had a half price sale and loaded up. Glad they didn't get kidnapped! :-)

    Hey everybody! I didn't get a chance to post yesterday bc of Internet mishap. All fixed now but neighbor kids were playin hide and seek in the bushes beside my house and ended up accidentally pulling my cable out of its fixture.

    My parents were heading back home last night. They wanted to leave bc of the crazies that might be out protesting the debate tonight. So Monday night they were playing at harrahs and lost track of time to go to Fremont. It was kind of good and bad they lost track. It was good bc they were winning pretty decent hits but bad at the same time bc they ended up putting it all back in the machines. They are normally a mechanical reels player but they tried everything they could to see all these newer games. The only specific machine my dad remembered for wins on Monday was the $1 WOF. Twice he hit 2x 2x red 7. So it was easy to see why they didn't want to interrupt a winning session.

    So for yesterday they did visit the Eiffel Tower and had their picture taken. they did hit up Fremont for a couple of hours and then headed out. They were tryin to stay longer so they could hit all of the casinos on Fremont but my mom wasn't feeling well. I found out they had to stop somewhere in Arizona on Saturday before Vegas to find her a urgent care. Her sinus started giving issues so they gave her a shot and antibiotics.

    They had a really good time and enjoyed themselves. Dad said he lost about $1200 for four days so he was pretty happy that he got a lot of play without depleting his entire BR. Not sure about my mom. She is super sneaky. I've seen her hit $300 once and cover it up only to buy us something and then laugh about where the money came from. But I do know she had to spend some money bc I have access to both of their tr accounts.

    They are also going to stop in any casino they pass along the way back so maybe I'll have something else to report. And my mom said even tho she didn't win her millions, thanks again to the jokers for following along!

    Sounds like your parents had a great time. They probably will take more trips now.

    My parents won't fly! When dad was in the Army, he flew all over the world. He says he was young and didn't mind. He says it wouldn't bother him if he had to now but prefers the enjoyment of actually being able to stop in places he hasn't ever seen. Mom took a small plane ride at 17. Her friend had a pilots license and he took a few girls up. He showed out and scared the living crap out of all of them and my mom said if she ever walks on the ground again she will never get in another plane ever. LOL

    LOL - I can just see your mom on the Willy wonka - what did I hit??!
    She played it several more times during the trip. She likes it a lot. Usually she plays the mechanical reels but Wonka caught her attention this time for some reason.
