Tuesday, July 4, 2006 – Independence Day
Is it time to go home yet? I get up around 9am. Buy drugs and head for the pool. Go for a coffee and Bailey’s but the bar isn’t open yet. I already bought the coffee. Head out on a mission to find Bailey’s. Get it at the same place I’ve been buying DayQuil. Spend about 2 hours at the pool and head up for a shower. Meet a couple of people behind the purchase of pokerchiptricks.com for lunch at the Sherwood Forest Cafe. I had the ham and cheese omelette and hash browns. It hit the spot!
Meet up with Lindsay and Julie and we head out. They bought some package deal tickets for the Stratosphere for $50 each. Buffet, American Superstars show with 2 free drinks, and elevator trip up to the top. Somehow I let them talk me into catching the bus. We wait a half hour for it to arrive and another hour to get there. Bus = Worst $2 you can spend in Las Vegas. As we boarded the bus I bet Lindsay $1 it would take us more than a half hour to get there. After the time passed
The food was good and I definitely ate my share. For the American Superstars show there were people doing Elvis, Britney Spears, Tim McGraw, Christina Aguilera, and Michael Jackson. Elvis and Christina were good, but Michael Jackson took the show. He had the voice and his dance moves were great. I’m a sucker for Michael Jackson entertainment. He’s one of the greatest musical artists of all time and did more for music than anyone ever has.
After the show we got in line to head up top for a view of the city. Since it was the 4th of July there were fireworks going off in every direction for as far as you could see. Quite amazing to see. We didn’t get up there until around 9:30pm so we probably missed most of the good fireworks, which I heard usually start around 9.
Caught a cab back to New York, New York where we met up with Jere and some of his friends. Gals went to Coyote Ugly and guys went to 9 Fine Irishmen. Everyone got pretty drunk by the end of the night and we ended up eating some great pizza. I think I got back to the room around 3am.
silly question – but where did you buy DayQuil near The Strip? i’ll be traveling to Las Vegas, staying in one of the hotels on The Strip, but have a horrible cough – heard TSA confiscates DayQuil so will have to buy it there

You could always get the tablets. I bought it in a shop inside the casino.
