Sunday in Vegas

Today, we headed out without the car. We stopped at the Hawaiian Gardens 1/2 price ticket booth to try to get Zumanity or Mama Mia, but neither were available at Hawaiian Gardens or the Coke Bottle.

We ate lunch at the Spice Market Buffet. It was good, but I was disappointed because we got there at 2:30, and the buffet closed between 3 -4 for dinner. However, we just assumed they were going to just stop seating new people, but rather they even stopped bringing out food. I mean, I had plenty to eat, I was just bummed that the dessert was mostly put away when I got there. Oh well.

After we ate, we walked around a bit, down to New York New York, and back through MGM. We went back to our room for about an hour, and then decided to go and watch the "Siren's at TI" show. We took the monorail part of the way, and then walked from Harrah's to Treasure Island. Unfortunately, the show was canceled due to high winds. SO, we turned around and walked all the way to Bellagio and watched a couple of the fountain shows.

We took the Deuce to Mandalay Bay, and here, we really notices the wind, as it is south of the strip with no big buildings across the boulevard to block the strong winds. At Mandalay Bay, we ate at a place called "The Burger Bar," which basically, you order your basic burger, (with your choice of beef, including Angus and Kobe, buffalo, turkey, and veggie) your choice of bun (sesame, chibata, onion, wheat, etc.) and then add any toppings you choose (items are per price, example, cheese 65 - 95 cents, depending on the type of cheese.)The burgers included your basic lettuce, onions, tomato, and a dill pickle wedge. The burgers were really good, and I got sweet potato fries to go with mine - mmmmmmm. My one complaint is for such a gourmet burger place, they were lacking in the sauce department. For example, you could get swiss and pineapple, but they didn't have tereyaki sauce to go with it. A pest mayo, and a chipoltle mayo would have been good options as well. Basically just ketchup, mustard, and A-1 sauce. The sauces they DID have, (there were some sauces that you could add for like 50 cents), were not very appealing.

However, I WOULD go back, it is a very tasty place.

After we ate we walked back to our hotel via Mandalay Bay, Luxor (checking out the new upstairs) and Excalibur.... before crossing the bridges back to MGM.
