I am so happy you reviewed Vic and Anthony's. I have always thought about going there but maybe we won't. Usually go to Hugo's for our steak fix. I also won on a video poker machine with a royal flush. That made my week! So happy to hear you won THREE times. How great. Thanks for your ALL your hard work in making these vlogs. I enjoy watching each and everyone of them. Take care.

    The GN used to be my go-to hotel for about 15-20 times in Vegas. The issue is what you pointed out - it is MOBBED! It got so crowded, that searched out other venues to stay (I usually go in the summer - it's crazy). VIP Check-in is a MUST (I was a member of Private Arrangements and Landry's Select (first year) and they gave VIP free (not anymore). Check-in can take over an hour in line. I agree with Vic & Anthony's - didn't live up to the hype for us either. In fact, our server was very pretentious. That set the mood for us. I'm really surprised you didn't show more of the property - since there is so much more. However, I can truly understand that it would be hard to record when it's crowded. One steakhouse - and it's re-opening later this month - is Binion's Steakhouse -- my favorite to be honest. Amazing views and great prime rib (last time I was there was 2019 - so how it will be when it opens again - who knows). BUT - Binion's Steakhouse would be a good video. As I've said before - love your channel - it takes the edge off of not being in Vegas.

You sure fit a ton into this staycation. Oh, and amazing win on Keno!

Our son makes videos for a living, and he gave us some great advice on gear, editing software, and so on, to get us started.

    Great staycation video! I like how there is no "going Hollywood" for Dale--whether he's eating at a snack bar or a 5-star restaurant, he sticks with his Bud Light! I may have said this before, but in the two years I've been watching your videos I've come to the conclusion that Dale's two favorite types of beer are Bud Light and "free!"😂Please keep the content coming.

Although I would probably go during the week when it’s calmer. What you said about comedians and cursing, I agree with.

Ice Bar is disappointing because they don’t have Blue Cheese stuffed olives for their martinis. We’ll be back in Vegas a week from tonight but at the Venetian. The good news is that dinner Sunday night is at Oscars. Great video. Thanks for sharing.

    You said this very well, and I have to agree, wholeheartedly. I remember we stayed at Excalibur, it had a similar pool deck, smaller, more intimate, but very lovely, and we felt totally comfortable and at home there. This one at GN was the same - we just needed it to be a bit warmer! Thanks for the offer of the G&T, hope we can take you up on it! :)

    I'll be at the GN in April for the highland games. They made me an offer I couldn't' refuse: $49 room w no resort fees! If you're coming to the games, which are 4/9-10, let me know which day and I'll buy you a dram. Penny loved the Nugget! She didn't like the big hotels on the Strip, but the Nugget was perfect size and had everything she wanted. Nice rooms. Great - and I mean great - pool. Terrific casino. She liked that the GN, Binions, and the California Club were old school. And, of course, people watching on Fremont Street. She had so much fun and I have so many wonderful memories of the times we stayed there. Nice wins, Dale! I've never had luck like that. Penny did, but not me. You need to tell me what I'm doing wrong!

We will stay in touch about that meetup and dram - not gonna miss it this time!

    I was just in Vegas with a group of 13 ppl. and we stayed at the Tuscany inn and suites. It was really nice. I have stayed at the Nugget for 4 times and yes that pool is amazing ( in the summer time). Thanks for sharing the info about the speakers. Our group rode the duece bus downtown on a Wednesday night. It was packed and it was LOUD. I love the music stages but the light show and music was a big distraction with all the new speakers. I'm not that old(60) but it was annoying loud for me. The Nugget was packed and like Paula said, it is old Vegas vibes.
