Livin' La Viva Las Vegas, Part 4 - At Play

"Sports" - Late night tennis at the clubhouse, golfing, basketball, billiards, pingpong...just some of the sports I've experienced here in Vegas. I never played tennis before but Terence hired a pro to teach us some basic moves.

"Food & Dining" - A whole lot of fancy restaurants. Terence always orders us 'Blue Label', his favorite drink, a $38 shot, the kind that President Erap drinks so that when I get to Manila, I can say that I drank what Erap drinks. :)

"Casino" - My first time in the casino, beginner's luck brought me $100 in the slot machine. Second time though, I ended up losing $50 in baccarat. No more gambling for me.

...sorry, no pics since this is 'at play' & not 'at work' right?

Ok probably just a few ones...

My generous hosts, Terence and his wife Che


My Lion's Share at the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino (the machine ran out of coins so I had to wait for a refill to get my prize winnings)

2-Days at The Venetian Hotel


This weekend, I just spent 2 nights at the Venetian Hotel courtesy of Che (Terence's wife, farthest left, together w/ Cha her sister-in-law and Sussette, the nanny of her kids). They have one of the largest and plushest suites on the strip, and this extravagantly furnished Italianate costs $400 a night (we got it for FREE :)


This is what our room looks like (again I was sharing the room w/ Mike, my housemate in Rhodes Ranch).


This suite is double the size of an ordinary room, complete w/ a living room area and an office table for meeting guests & business associates. Further down are the two beds.

The girls dropped us in the hotel and wanted to see how the room looks like. They had fun posing inside the room as Mike, a former policeman 'directs' them to do some sexy posing.



Living the Las Vegas lifestyle is truly a life-changing experience for me. It's not just all fun & games though, and it got me thinking and reflecting on future possibilities & challenges.

Next, wedding couples at the Venetian...
