Stilla went shopping this morning (Sunday) with William and Jasmin while I finished up yesterday’s blog post. When they got back to the RV Park, Will & Jasmin packed up their stuff to move over to the Treasure Island Hotel & Casino. They will share a room with Joleen & Dylan for the next several days. For those of you just joining the blog – Joleen is our youngest daughter and Dylan is her long-time boyfriend since high school. They flew in from Colorado Springs while William and his girlfriend Jasmin drove their rental car to get here. William & Jasmin are on a three-week vacation from Germany.
Here’s their view of the strip from the 34th floor of Treasure Island (TI):
After moving Will & Jasmin into their room at TI, we all drove over to Dylan’s grandparents house on the outskirts of Las Vegas. ‘Mike & Karen Early’ invited us all to their house for a quick visit and then dinner at a small local pizzeria.
Dylan’s parents were already at Mike & Karen’s house when we arrived after going through the stringent security at the gate. Mike gave us the nickel-tour of their beautiful home that backs-up to the 18th hole on the golf course.
Mike treated us all to a great dinner. Thanks Mike & Karen! 🙂
After a great meal of pasta, pizza, salad, and more, we said our goodbyes to Mike & Karen and the rest of us drove over to a haunted house.
The Trilogy of Terror is rated as the best haunted house in Las Vegas and according the Freakling Bros. website; the “4th Best Haunted Attraction in the World.”
We chose to take the ‘scariest’ of the three haunted house tours. And it was definitely well done – if you’re looking for a scare, go on this one 😐 The cost was $15 pp and the photos afterwards were an additional $15.
Here’s the photos we bought after taking the tour:
Fun times ! We said goodbye to Dylan’s parents Kelly & Jeff. They’re flying back to Colorado Springs on Monday.
We went back to TI and spent the rest of the evening with Will & Jasmin, Joleen & Dylan, and their friend Dalton.
The Treasure Island slots weren’t very friendly to us and we called it a night after a few hours. Stilla and I drove William’s rental car back to the RV park and we turned in for the rest of the night (early-morning).
My Mom, her sister Kathy, my Stepdad, and brother Steve, along with his girlfriend Cheryl are on their way here from Casa Grande, AZ this morning as I finish up this post. The ‘Find My Friends’ app on the iPhone reports them as being near Wickenburg, AZ right now. Yoo Hoo! More fun-times to come…
