Striking a pose

Thought it was hilarious that at the exact moment I was taking this picture, one of the birds looked right at me and tilted it's head. It's funny how you can capture just the right moment, because I sure as hell would be freaked out if he looked because he wondered what the hell I was doing.

Aria Resort and Casino visit

I took a trip to Las Vegas this last week and was finally able to visit Aria Resort and Casino after watching City Center being built for the better part of the last two years. I must say I think they opened prematurely at the inconvinience of the patrons. There was still lots of construction going on so it seemed some entrances into the casino/hotel were not open. From the same side of the street you have to walk up to a bridge two flights up. Once on the bridge you walk into their mall area were you are presented with a gorgeous floating restaraunt show in the picture here:





The casino area is to the right of this restaraunt but you can't go right, instead you have to walk all the way around to the left and back right. After you've made your way through the mall you go through the hotel lobby and then finally into the casino floor.


Once on the floor the first thing I noticed was it was incredibly dark. The picture here may not look like it was all that dark but it was to the point I actually walked by the craps tables twice until I asked where they were.

The service and friendlyness from the casino staff was awesome though and good service and friendly staff makes up for a lot.

Gotta open up those entrances and make it more convenient to get to the casino folks.
