Trip Report: Blonde4ever’s Perfect Halloween 2016 Trip – Part 8 (Halloween!)

Blonde4ever shares Part 8 of her Halloween 2016 Trip Report.

Halloween was another fabulous, jam-packed, Vegas-fun day.

Kodi and I decided to visit Palace Station today as neither one of us had ever been there and we had a “two for one” coupon for their Feast buffet. We Lyfted over and walked inside and began snapping pictures of the place as one often does when you visit someplace new. We were standing in front of a closed empty bar with attractive woodwork, so we were both taking pictures of it and a security guard ran over and told us to stop. At first, he said “no pictures of the property!” That seemed pretty extreme so I asked: ” I can’t even take a picture of the buffet sign?” “No!” he said. Then he went on to say “no place with a cashier.” But, there was no cashier present in that bar, it was closed. We were confused but we are nice, compliant women so we didn’t argue. He instructed us to delete our pictures but he did not demand that we do it in front of him, so we never did (I guess we are not THAT compliant). As we walked away I could hear him talking into his Walkie Talkie (do they still call them that?) reporting our “crime.” Kodi, being the rebel she is, was still trying to snap a few pictures and I was chiding her. I don’t want jail time to be part of my trip report, although it would make for an exciting story.

After we were done ticking off the security guard we enjoyed the Feast buffet for lunch. You cannot beat their prices! The complete story of that meal is here. We went to explore the Palace Station casino after “feasting” and to play for an hour. I got on a Lighting Links slot that doubled my money so I was very pleased. I left with a good feeling about that place and I will definitely return.We Lyfted back home at this point so we would have enough time to have another swim in the Plaza pool before the evening festivities. After our refreshing swim, we cleaned up. I did not bother with my zombie mask this time. I put on my old standby, my money boa. I have worn it for several Halloweens and it always gets a fun reaction out of people (plus it is easy to cram into a suitcase).

I went up to a friend’s room for a drink before another group’s meet. Kodi was still getting ready. We also went to this group’s meet at Whiskey Licker at Binion’s for a bit to say hello. Then we took a walk down Fremont taking pictures of all the costumes. My pictures of that evening are here.

We came back to Binion’s and played for a bit. I got the deuces again on my favorite Video Poker machine there. We had enough food comps to buy dinner at Benny’s BBQ. I also got a ten dollar off coupon for it from their Swipe and Win promo. Love that Promo! It guarantees I will be eating a few meals at Binion’s on every trip. Pictures of our Benny’s meal are here.

After eating we took some more pictures of all the crazy antics on Fremont Street as the street was fuller now. Kodi went home to the Plaza..but I got on another Lightning Link at Binion’s and was there for three hours.

I had to force myself to leave that machine, I was having a blast. I knew I needed to get some sleep before our excursion the next day with Nancy and Jeff to Wayne Newton former home.

Tomorrow is my last full day…*sob* 

To be continued next week…
