Once again, we were woken by the alarm this morning because we'd signed up to do a Marriott Timeshare presentation, so we got ourselves ready and went down to catch the free shuttle.
The presentation was really impressive and the guy who was showing us round was really nice - his name was Chuck and he was quite old. We felt sorry for him in a way because we had no intention of buying anything. When it was over we got our free show and meal tickets and bid Chuck farewell.
Las Vegas was starting to get really hot now. It said on the news it was about 96°, so we thought we'd spend the afternoon by the pool. When we got to the pool we found that it was closed - there was some problem with the pumps or something and we were asked if we minded going to the other pool. They asked if we minded because it was an adults only pool - and there may be some topless swimming up there. I didn't mind - I planned on going topless anyway!
This evening we went to the Planet Hollywood Hotel and Casino for dinner and to watch the 'V - Ultimate Variety Show'. We ate in a little Italian place called Lombardo's. The food was really good, and even though our main meals were paid for, (by Marriott), as we had ordered deserts and drinks we spent $30 extra - d'oh!
The 'V Show' was pretty good. It was loads of different circus-type acts and for nothing we couldn't complain - although I admit, it was no Celine Dion type production! When it was over we took a slow walk back to the Stratosphere.
Man, we are cooking in Vegas (and I don't mean on the slots)!
