Back again

We got home around noon and was happy to see our little munchkins. By the look in there eyes, they were happy to see us also.

We spent the night at the Casino Aztar Hotel and spent some money to help out the poor gambling boat. Alot of the people in the shop met at Corkys Bar B Que and ate together. I think the group liked this place. The food is pretty good and is not really outrageously priced. The ribs are good but dont hold a candle to the Trace Inn. We then broke up to go our seperate ways.

Brando and I went shopping and asked if Mei Mei's mommy and daddy wanted to come along and they did. We had a pretty good time. We then got back to the Casino and got our cards to gamble. I blew my 20 in a matter of a few minutes how ever Mei Mei's mommy and daddy did rather well. I know they won over $250. Its a good day when you can walk off the boat ahead.

We arrived back at the hotel room at 10:30 smelling like a couple of ash trays and had to immediately shower the stink off of us. Brando went to bed pretty quick while I stayed up to watch Star Trek: TOS. I was rendered speechless while watching my old favorite. They have totally redone the space scenes on the episode I was watching, which was the Doomsday Machine. It didnt look quite right. The shuttle craft looked less hoaky and not like it was on strings. Then when the Doomsday Machine was killed and a shock way eminated from its mouth, I knew someone had done some editing. It felt like I had been betrayed by and old friend. I was a little angry but again felt like it was a bit better.

We had Breakfast the next morning and went to a couple of stores before we headed home. All in all it was a fun but tireing weekend.
