2025 Las Vegas - Day #1

Sharon and I are heading to Las Vegas to stay with Phil anbd Marlene for a few days. They moved from South Carolina to Nevada in December.

Worried about the spring break crowds and parking at the airport, we left the house about 10:45 am for a 1:30 pm flight. Given that we are retired, I am not sure why we are traveling during Spring Break...

Traveling with two suitcases and two sets of golf clubs, I dropped Sharon at the terminal and then went looking for parking. Both the garage and the daily lot were full, I ended up parking in the East Lot. It took me about 20 minutes to park the car and catch a shuttle bus back to the terminal.

There was hardly anyone checking bags. We breezed through security with CLEAR and TSA Pre. We sat and had lunch at Cafeteria 15L (turkey sandwich and burger).

Boarding with A47 and A48, we were able to get the two seat exit row. I am constantly amazed that people don't grab the exit rows. It was a quick easy flight to Vegas.

Phil and Marlene picked us up at the airport. They live about thirty minutes from the airport in the Shoreline neighborhood of Lake Las Vegas.

We spent the late afternoon touring their new house and catching up with a cocktail. Their house has a third floor skydeck with a nice view of the area.

We walked to dinner in the Village at Lake las Vegas at Luna Rossa. I had risotto alla pescatora, while Sharon had piccata al linome.

Back at the house, we contined visiting. When we crashed, it was after 11 pm.
