We got up at the last minute on Tuesday, checked out of our presidential suite at the Palms, and headed to the Venetian to get brunch. After that, we went down to the sports book and cashed our our immense winnings (something like $40) on the basketball games.<\/p>\n

Then it was time for the Nightclub and Bar Show!<\/p>\n

\"nightclub<\/a><\/div>\n

All we knew was that there would be a ton of vendors represented, and that there would be some samples. What we didn’t know was that there would be a million samples and giveaways, and that everything would be amazing.<\/p>\n

\"holy<\/a><\/div>\n

The exhibit floor was open from 12-6, and we figured we’d only be there a few hours before getting bored. Man, were we wrong.<\/p>\n

\"a<\/a><\/div>\n

Also, a porn star autographed that sign for us, and wished us happy wedding. AWESOME.<\/p>\n

How we survived the NCB Show, I’m not really sure. What I do know is that one should not try to experience it all in one session.<\/p>\n

\"confetti<\/a><\/div>\n

We stopped to get food at In & Out Burger on the way to our new hotel, the Flamingo. By the time we got to the room, I’d forgotten that we had eaten. Also, the front desk told us there was a package waiting for us there, but apparently there was not. I’m still troubled about that.<\/p>\n

The Flamingo’s ‘Go!’ rooms are great. They’ve been recently updated and are very modern. My favorite amenities were the TV built into the bathroom mirror, and the shower with horizontal jets. We’ll definitely be staying there again.<\/p>\n

After crashing for a while, we went out to have a very late dinner at Todd English’s Urban P.U.B. in City Center. The food and beers were great, and the crowd getting pretty nuts there. After dinner, we went back over to the Chandelier Bar for another cocktail. It had quickly become our favorite bar in Vegas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
