We got up and once again did the usual … lounge around the pool and unpack boxes. Besides unpacking more boxes, we actually got Allison’s office all setup. Now we felt like we accomplished something. Karen and I headed over to the MGM Grand to pick up our tickets for Tom Jones. Mind you, it took us almost 2 hours from the time we left the house to get to the MGM. Traffic is very bad in Las Vegas. We then met up with Darren and Allison at Macayo’s Mexican Kitchen. The food here was awesome. After dinner, Karen and I headed over to Fry’s Electronics to see if there was anything that I needed for my Ipod. We then made our way over to the MGM Grand and proceeded to do our first bit of serious gambling. I ended up winning $50 on a slot machine.
We got into the Hollywood Theatre. We hoped that Darren wasn’t going to miss too much of the show since he usually gets out of work around 8:30pm, and had to drive from one end of the Strip to the other. He must have drove really fast because he walked in just as Tom started singing the first song. Tom is 65 and he still puts on an awesome show. He sang all the hits … “It’s Not Unusual”, “Delilah”, “She’s A Lady”, “Kiss”, “If I Only Knew”, etc. After the concert, we made our way back to the house were we watched 2 episodes of “Las Vegas Garden Of Love”.
