Day 135 - Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

We wake up this morning and head to breakfast at my favourite place for breakfast in Vegas - Mr Lucky's. Such a cool diner in the middle of the casino. 

We then head to the pool for the day which surprisingly has a DJ playing and is pretty banging today. It is a little bit cooler today as the wind has picked up a bit so going in the water is a tad chilly. 

Randomly the ex model Caprice is staying here too and by the pool with us. She seems really nice and joins in with a hilarious group who were really going for it in the pool dancing (she is in the bright yellow bikkini). 

She has definitely kept herself in shape and still has a mighty fine six pack. 

The lovely Nirvana pool. 

Forgot that this place has a proper beach leading into the pool with really nice sand. 

We head back to the room at about 5pm to go to the gym and both have a great work out in the awesome gym they have here. It has been the longest I have been without going to the gym since I was 16 - nearly 6 weeks and 4 weeks since I have even been for a run. Definitely need to get back into it. 

After the gym we get ready and head to Planet Hollywood which always surprises us in how good it is. It's a really cool hotel with some realy good bars. 

We start off in Rock Bar. 

Then onto one in the middle of the casino called Extra Lounge where they had a good band playing.

Gordon Ramsey is taking over Vegas. This is his burger place aptly called Burger. God know what the gas bill is like in this place as they have a huge fire show piece on the way in.

After PH we head over the road to the Cosmopolitan to a place recommended by the Wallpapet guide for dinner called China Poblano. It's a really interesting concept and a first for me - a Mexican Chinese. The menu is split half and half between things like Tacos, Ceviche for the Mexican side and then Dim Sum, Noodles, Soups etc for the Chinese side. 

The food was absolutely delicious although we over ordered and ended up in food coma! The restaurant decor was also really cool. 

After we had a walk around the Cosmo and finished our red wine in the bar in the casino. I then made the foolish error of going back to the gambling tables when I am up. This time I fancied a bit of Roulette and very quickly lost $60. Oh well, still up over all. I'm sure this won't be the case after tomorrow evening when I have "a flutter for the road". Back to Black Jack tomorrow though. 

We then head back to our hotel for a drink in the bar there and do what we love doing best - sitting at a Hard Rock bar listening to and watching the amazingn music on the big screens. At about 1:30 we call it a night and head back to our ridiculously comfortable bed that is a strong contender for most comfortable bed of the trip. 

Cool Led Zep picks by the lift.
