Day Ten - The last full day in Vegas...

People are going to like to read about today even more than yesterday. We did pretty much diddly squat today. After we got up and showered, we just walked back up Fremont Street, with a stop at the Gold Spike for a $2 beer. For the people that haven't been reading and two bucks for a beer sounds a bit much, it's 40oz of beer. We looked at some of the vendors on the street, then went back into the ABC store (from Hawaii), and I bought some macadamia nut snacks in different flavors. There were some spicy ones (or so they said on the package), but they were nowhere near spicy enough. We sat down at La Bayou again and played around on the nickel slots for quite some time. The cocktail waitress kept on feeding me cranberry juices and Jimmie brown cows. His last two though he thinks they made with whisky instead of kahlua, as they were terribly hard to get down. We went from La Bayou to Main Street Station, where I picked up my last dollar coin in Vegas. We wandered around in there for awhile, checking out the restaurants, etc. There was an award winning buffet there, but I just couldn't do it. At the steak house, there was a railway car in it that was set up as the smoking lounge. This is where Jimmie and I parted ways for the evening.
While Jimmie was smoking, I went back out to the casino and tried my hand at a couple of machines. I doubled my money on a poker machine, then got a good pull on a slot machine and made $7.50 in quarters. I went over to the roulette wheel and watched that for awhile. I eventually put in ten bucks and played the outside, going for the almost 50-50 odds of playing red or black. I made 5 bucks right away, then ended up losing it all in three more spins of the wheel. I should have went with my gut though, and put my last five bucks on 0. I decided to go for black again though and that pesky 0 came up. Meh, that's the way it goes.
I left Main Street and slowly wandered back to the hotel, trying to find a place to eat at. I stopped in at Mermaids and got myself a chili dog, but that wasn't quite enough. Eventually, I wandered back to the El Cortez and decided to have their T-Bone steak dinner. Yeah, shouldn't have done that. Quite possibly one of the worst steaks I've ever had. They do their eggs and bacon ok, but that steak... blah.
I came back to the hotel room a little before midnight and chatted with Allan a bit online. MSN decided to flake out and wouldn't let me back on for over 10 minutes so I decided to just watch TV until I was tired enough to sleep. Jimmie got back around 2am, went for breakfast, then back again to drink water and sleep.
