|
|
I boarded my flight in ORF -RNO via BWI. There were 2 gate changes and the plane was delayed about 1.5 hours.I spoke to the gate agent and he was able to give me a voucher for $100 for my problems. So, I'm booked from BWI -LAS- RNO. Since, they rebooked me I had to get off the plane in LAS and then another flight to RNO. Even though my original flight and the flight I was on was going to RNO with a stop in LAS for passengers. Kind of an interesting way to start my journey.
I had my Saturday night room booked at Econo Lodge on VA St booked sort of late and it was about $70. The next morning Motel 6 had Friday & Saturday for $180 pn on their sign. Now off to the Eldorado, Su-Th for $40 pn + fees and taxes and my Thursday night at the Nugget $39 pn + fees and taxes. This AM ran into a guy in the Eldorado who said Friday and Saturday were $272 and later some guy told me they booked late (April/May) and the GSR for Friday and Saturday was $350. He didn't bite on the $350. My rooms for the Eldorado and Nugget were booked on third party sites. What I found interesting was the locator number for the third party sites wasn't the one the hotels had for my ressy. Might want to keep that in mind.
Now about the jackpots a lady was playing a penny slot machine at Harrah's and hit for 3 jackpots $100, $1096 and 11K. Never seen some one win 3 jackpots on one machine. |

Thanks for Part 1, VAPA. Looking forward to the next installment. I've had airplane issues too with Reno, but at least both of mine were when I was trying to get home so it wasn't as bad as when you're just trying to get there and start the fun!
Dang. I can't even win one jackpot, let alone three! And all on the same machine too! That would have been amazing to see.
I still haven't made it to Reno during HAN. Someday... |
