We had a great Thanksgiving with Jeri and Stach yesterday. We went over to the Red Rock Casino and Jeri and I had some good luck! Then we went back to Boulder Station for a delicious turkey dinner (and no dishes)!
Today we went over to the Paris Hotel. We made a reservation for lunch at the Eiffel Tower Restaurant. Then we took the Eiffel Tower tour to the top. It is half the height of the real Tower! It is a great view of the city and we watched the Bellagio water show below.
Jeri and Stach had invited their "adopted" son and his wife who live in Vegas to join us for lunch and we had a wonderful time. I enjoyed the Eiffel Tower drink with champagne and berries and can't remember what else but it was delicious! They started us off with a small cheese pastry. Next we had some type of cheese in a little cup. Our next course was a delicious creamy French Onion soup. My main course was a crepe filled with puréed artichoke and walnut bits with a tomato basil coulis. It was yummy! Jeri enjoyed crab stuffed French Toast with a creamy cocktail sauce. Everyone else selected more common items. The waiter brought us each a piece of mouth-watering chocolate candy to finish us off! It was very fun (and very French)!
We could see the Bellagio Water Show from our table, and since we had almost a three hour lunch (and for us our dinner) we saw it several times! Each time was a little different!
Before leaving the Paris Hotel we visited the Eiffel Tower gift shop. Ted and I got two Paris wine glasses and a new blouse for me! Such a fun day!
This morning Jeri and Stach left for San Diego. I'm catching up on washing and we're spending some time with Max! His knee/hip is doing better but it is trying to keep him from using it.
Enjoying Thanksgiving..."Ain't Life Grand!"
