So…. I just got back from the World Series of Poker and no I did not win. I did, however, realize something very cool. Vegas can be extremely relaxing if you do not spend the entire time in a drunken stupor! After I got knocked out of the tourney I went to the airport in the limo and surprised my wife. She was stoked! The we went to dinner at Dos Caminos in the Venetian and had some great table-side guacamole. In the morning we went for brunch at Olives in the Bellagio and watched the water shows. After that we spent about four hours at Canyon Ranch Spa..
Let me tell you about the spa. It is NOT a girl thing. I had a sauna, steam, igloo, herbal atrium, and an 80 minute massage. It was AWESOME! The we went to dinner at Emeril’s restaurant, Del Monico. Awesome shrimp, awesome table side ceaser salad, HUGE bone in rib eye. Yum!
Then we played a little blackjack and hit the sack. I actually came back rested from Vegas. Very strange but something I highly recommend trying. Will I do it every time? Doubtful. But nice to mix it up.
Cheers,
Aaron Parkinson
