Las Vegas: Hair Spa and Foraging For Food

If you somehow landed on this page and would like to go to the beginning of this Las Vegas trip report, go HERE.

I ended up sleeping 12 hours in my marshmallow bed at Wynn, save for the times I got  up and tried to get the fucking air conditioner on.  I seem to always have issues with temperature control at Wynn.  For such a fancy hotel, you would not expect this to be an issue.

I am still tired but must go on. Get up. Be strong.  You can do this. You can be in Las Vegas.  GO.

I had wanted to go to Resorts World, where I am still checked in, to use my dining credit.  But I am starving and don’t want to risk that any restaurant I believe will be open, is actually not.  So I make a reservation at Jardin.

I played at Encore to kill time before my reservation.  Of course, someone is on the machine I love.  I lose some money and then it is time to eat.

After breakfast, I took an Uber to Soulo Hair Spa for a shampoo and scalp treatment.  It is located in a shopping mall with Big Wong.

I am completely obsessed with watching videos on youtube of Japanese Head Spas.  Go on, make your joke about head spas and happy endings.  You know you want to.  Are you done?  Good, let’s continue.

I do not know why these treatments do not exist in America.  There is one in NYC that I have yet to visit. One in Los Angeles.  And now here.  Or so I thought.  I was pretty excited when this place opened but it is a hair spa, not a head spa.   The difference is that they do shampoo and hair masks, but they do not do the full scalp treatment.  But it is fine because it was still amazing.  I absolutely will come back here again.

I really miss traveling around Asia and getting my hair washed in places where you actually lay down while getting your hair washed, and you get massaged while the conditioner is in your hair.  For just a few dollars.  Can you tell what Lonely Planets are out and all over my coffee table right now?

After my hair treatment, I took an Uber to Circus Circus.  It is so loud in here.  It took me forever to find the Starbucks only to discover it is closed because why wouldn’t it be?  I am so thirsty so I go to the food court and wait forever to get a Diet Pepsi, only to discover the fountain drinks were not working.   Fine, I’ll take a shake.  I wish I would have thought to find the McDonalds for iced coffee but honestly, that’s just more time in this place and I need less time in this place.

Fucking Blue.

I lost $100 here on Cleopatra Keno and then went over to Slots a Fun.  I played a Buffalo Legends and hit a bonus for $160.  I do not have a photo of it, I don’t know why.

Back to Resorts World.  I am still checked in here and take a stop at the room for no real reason.  I still have my dining credit here and plan to use it after gambling a bit.  But that went a bit awry when I sat down at the Ultimate X I had played last night and it was stuck on some game that was not Ultimate X and I could not get it to change.

I played some Buffalo slots and kept geting weirdo bonuses on my player’s card.  $1 here, $7 there.  Not sure what triggered it.

I left here a loser and went back to Wynn.  I took a nap and could not get out of bed.  Get out of bed.  Get up.  GET UP AND GET OUT OF BED.

I asked Google what the fuck on Earth is open so I can eat something that is not inside Wynn.  Grand Lux at Palazzo is open until midnight?  Let’s fucking go.

Google Maps took me through Wynn and had me pass by the Uber pickup, which up until now, I had no idea where it was. Thanks Google Maps!

I walked over to Palazzo and arrived at Grand Lux at 10:00 PM and it is closed.  But Google Maps fucking said MIDNIGHT DAMMIT.

Over to Grand Lux at Venetian, which actually is open.  I ordered a burger and got a side salad instead of fries.  I really should do this more often.

Casino view while eating:

Venetian is jam packed.  It usually is.  It is so hard to find any machine to play. I found a bank of empty machines but they had weirdo signs on them.  Why must you.
Found an open Cleopatra Keno and turned $80 into $100.

I decide I want to stay out tonight and play.  Things like this were the norm way back when.  It was also easier when you could get food or iced coffee 24 hours a day.  But I digress.

From Venetian, I went over to Treasure Island.

I played Ultimate X here.

And made my way back to Wynn.

Lost some money here and went up to the room to fight with Alexa. Good night.
