Las Vegas: December 17, 2014, Day Two of Thirteen

This morning I woke up at Palace Station at 6:33 am. This means I had about four hours sleep after a very exhausting and very long day. This is what Las Vegas does to you. It doesn’t matter than I need about fifty more hours of sleep, there are video poker machines downstairs, who can sleep?

I have a free buffet at Palace Station courtesy of MyVegas. Actually I have two because there is no option to get just one, which is kind of annoying. They are obviously going to track the play to see if the cost of giving away free buffets was recovered via play. My account shows I used two and I only used one. They should consider offering single options.

The buffet was really good and my only complaint is that the entire room reeked of ketchup for some reason.

Aria Animated Sign – Las Vegas, Nevada

If you are familiar with me, then you know I don’t take kindly to most changes in Las Vegas.  Or in life in general I suppose as well.

But there is one change that I cannot get enough of.  Huge animated hotel and casino signs.   The first property to introduce this was Wynn.   On one night back in December of 2008, I stood outside on a freezing night taking endless pictures of it.  Once I got home, I uploaded them and realized they were all horrible shots where you can see my breath in every picture because it was so freaking cold outside.  I still have it in my head to go back and do it all over again.

On this last trip, I repeated that night.  Only this time, Aria’s beautiful new sign was my model.

I realize not everyone has a sick fascination with seeing 238947238 pictures of a sign.  So I am making this separate post for it so as to not entirely clog up my trip report.
