Isla

This last weekend we drove to Las Vegas to hang out with Mark and Tiffany as she was there working in a trade show (sadly, she had to work most of the time we were there, but I'm hoping they got to have some fun on Sunday after we'd left). On Saturday, I enjoyed laying by the pool all day, and in the evening, David took us out for a fancy dinner at Isla with his gambling winnings. Yes, I was in Las Vegas all weekend, and all I took pictures of was food - that's what really excites me. Beautiful, delicious food. Levan & Heather turned us on to this place, Isla, in the Treasure Island hotel, and I was excited to go back and plunge into the mojitos! I had a blackberry and a cucumber, and both were scrumptious and minty fresh! We were next in line after a couple with 2 kids in strollers, and the hostess told them she could seat them in another hour, so they left, then she promptly seated us without hesitation, so we felt fabulous for not having children that kept us from being excluded from nice fancy restaurants.



I want to eat it all over again! I had tasty prawns in red sauce with stuffed tortilla, David got the steak pyramid and Mark enjoyed carnitas. Dinner was followed by some craps at Excalibur, and then back to bed. Back to 2 beds actually, because our room had 2 double beds instead of one big one, but we somehow made do. Oh Riviera, we won't be staying at you again!
