    Wow, so much of this trip is a departure from my usual. Should I be wary? Excited? Will a change in routine also change my poor gambling luck from last year?

    Life has been so busy that when Evoni let me know her Vegas dates for February, I was thrilled to see it was one of the few dates that would work for me this quarter and I jumped on making plans! Normally BFF heads out on the trips, but for those who didn't know- she had surgery on her knee in January and can't fly for a couple months due to the air pressure, as per Dr's orders! Booooo......going to miss having you there BFF! Sis also comes out every trip, but for some bizarre reason, all the Vegas flights in the foreseeable future from Winnipeg are outrageously priced, over $1k outrageous, so she decided to take a pass this trip! Booooo.......going to miss having you there too sis! Wow, heading to Vegas without my normal crew!

    Mr. VC finally realized the opportunity this presented having Sis available for kiddo duty. With only a few days to spare, he started booking flights, one for himself to Vegas, and a couple more for Sis and her hubby to watch the kids! It's a rare sight indeed to see Me and Mr VC in Vegas at the same time!

    Excited to get some Mr VC time, I reach out to my host for last minute arrangements. I end up getting an email letting me know my host has left. Damn, he was fantastic, and I hate finding out just as I'm about to leave! Fingers crossed for no hiccups as I had him override the offer running this weekend that blacked out the usual monthly offer.

    So missing most of my usual crew, happy to have Mr VC in town, but no host!

    As long as we are changing things up, going to try The Dorsey, Aquanox, and Delmonico for first time. Planning to add some video poker to the mix after all the great hits on the board and hope the change up in trip will be a change up in luck!

    Looking forward to seeing @Evoni this weekend and meeting up for the high limit pull with other members this trip!

    On my way, just checking in at airport now! Next stop- VEGAS!

    Awesome you and Mr VC have a great time.

    My plan for next trip is to eat atleast 2 places we haven't been before. As well. Never know where might find a new favorite!

    Good luck will be following along.

    Freaking LOVE my Nexus card! Managed to pass long security and clear customs. If only it worked at Starbucks, lol. No time to hit up the lounge, flight ready to board![​IMG]

    Good luck VC.

    Nice that Mr. VC is able to come along this trip.

    If I could I would fly out with Mrs pphold but can not at this time.

    Lets see lots of nice meals and big jackpots this trip.

    Have a great trip.

    Have a fabulous time, VC!

    I hope you enjoy The Dorsey better than I did. I thought it was overpriced and the service was snooty! But maybe we were just not feeling it because we wanted one of the giant bowl drinks and we didn't have 4 others with us to help us drink it!

    Excited to hear your thoughts on Aquaknox, that's one I always want to try! I love the decor and how inviting it looks when I walk by.

    Have a great trip and looking forward to your TR.
    Wanted to come out this weekend, but it just didn't work out.
    Look on the bright side, spontaneous changes could be a good thing! Just go with the flow!

    Totally agree on the trying new places, I get in a routine of going back to my favourites.

    I'm even in a mood to change up the usual games.... going to play some VP but also look for some new slot titles. May play some buffalo, but I think it will be a smaller portion of play this trip!!

    Uuugggggghhhhh.

    Sitting on plane. Captain just came on to say BOTH of the indicator bulbs for showing when the landing gear was down had burnt out, so they attempted to change them. While doing that, something broke off and now they need to replace a module- but have to find one first.

    Starting with a 15 minute delay and stuck on the plane so I can't even get a drink. Fingers crossed this goes fast. So far Air Canada has been a gong show this trip!

    Agreed! I couldn't live without my NEXUS pass. I have an Amex card that gives me priority check in and access to the Maple Leaf Lounges....another lifesaver.

    Good Luck!

    Hmmm. I know my Amex CC gave me access to AC lounge, but didn't look into if it gave priority check in. I left my card at home ( or it's somewhere?) and AC can't look it up because it's through the CC and not on system. I'm soooooo going to look into that when I get back!!

    Indicator lights fixed and plane door has now been closed!!!!

    But- no ground crew to push us off the gate. Expecting only another 10 minute delay.
