I am not sure if I have flown Spirit before, but I know that I would not make a habit of it. They were courteous and it was not a bad experience at all. Well the second stop landing was a little rough. My issue is once you pay for everything else, such as baggage fees and window seats, you are paying the same amount as you would for any other airline. Now if you got a $50 – $100 ticket I can see it being worth it. This trip I have sat on the same seat both flights, Seat 27D. Which happens to be an aisle. When I don’t have a window seat I feel like a beggar. Hungrily peeking across the other passengers trying to get a glimpse of the view out the window. So tragic. Lol. Now they changed my seat for some odd reason. I am not complaining though. This seat is the 4th row in on the plane. Still not a window seat but I will be one of the first to get off. Yay!! Welcome to Las Vegas.
This 3 day weekend is for a wedding of a good friend of mine, Steve Parker. I am happy for them. I am always happy for anyone who finds their life partner. It is also cool because I haven’t been to Vegas in 16 years. I am excited to see the changes and have new memories and experiences. Steve and Joy are getting married at Caesar’s Palace which is also where I am staying. I have not stayed in this hotel/casino before. On my previous trips to Las Vegas I stayed at the Luxor and the Mirage, respectively. Planning on a new album in my photo gallery dedicated to this trip. I am sure I will be taking an excessive amount of pictures. Way back when, there was not cellphone cameras to take pics. We had those disposable daddies. And if you didn’t get them developed, those memories were not preserved for future reference.
I forgot my sunglasses. Just realizing this. Well thank God I brought a hat to protect my precious face from the sun. It is going to be hot as hell all the days I am here. Still looking forward to getting outside and walking the strip. I know some things have changed since I was last here and some things have stayed the same. I don’t remember paying resort fees back in the day. Personally, I think the fees should be on an as needed basis. If I don’t plan on using any of the amenities that are covered with the resort fees, I should be able to be pardon from the extra cost. Alas, it doesn’t work that way. I did ask and was shot down. Oh well what can you do.
This is the view from my room.
I had a great view. Waking up looking at those beautiful mountains and the lights in the evening was a definite bonus to my stay.
I am so delinquent because this was the first post that I created but I am just now posting it well after the vacation/wedding is over. I had to finish it up and share. It would have been really ghetto to never publish it. Lol. When was the last time you were in Las Vegas? Where did you stay? What did you do? Please leave a comment. Continue to be well and whole.
