We are! That elevator ride up made a little sick to my stomach...didn't realize they were glass elevators. So far nothing much has happened in the casino...I did only spend $40 last night for a couple hours of slots so I guess thats a win. Casino was super busy....slow drink service. |

I live just a few blocks from Atlantis and was wondering why it was a little louder than usual. Alison is in town! Charlie, Higgins and I are wishing you loads of good luck and big wins.
Oh, remind Dawn to stay away from those "ass stealing" masseuses (masseese?) |

Those Atlantis elevators offer a great view of Reno, but if you don't like flying ... well, there's some similarities! |

We need To blow this joint....To give you an idea of how its going, we have been in bed by midnight the last three nights. Usually we are our all hours of the night..We have turned into old ladies here....we haven't even been able to hardly play as neither of us are getting anything. Trying to move to the Pep today...Just emailed my host. Casino music is horrible too. |

|

Having to stay one more night - That must be an omen! Lady Luck will definitely shower you and Dawn with untold riches at the Atlantis tonight! How do I know this? I don't. It's just a bit of gambler's premonition. (Which has never actually worked for me.) Then again, you could stroll over to your castle and win there. If you do, make sure to take a cab back. It's quite a walk after a few drinks and, of course, the 'night people' will be out there. |

If ya go to the pepper mill, take the bus, and on your way back stop half
way at the lucky Beaver, and have a cold one or 2 play some bar tops, and have a great grilled Meal. you'll like it. |

BUS? It's four blocks ! And Alison... go up to the Oyster Bar and see Tony. Drop my name and tell him to fix a Patron cocktail on ME.
Check out the best view of the mountains and weather while playing anywhere. I prefer the bar and VP.... but most of the machines up there are game maker with a few dozen games.
Have you been to the pool, yet? And who is this crummy band playing now? Or were you talkin about the Muzac?
Go out to GSR and get a card there.....comps easy to get there.
Remember, If ya wanna win big, ya gotta BET big.
Oh....and at Atlantis....swipe your card first thing in the morning....every day. |

So by music I mean the muzac...horrible!
We did go up to the oyster bar. Was pretty warn up there and fishy smelling. I dont eat fish so it stinks to me...lol...
Oh and my socks seem to turn brown from the carpet...haha...I think they need to be cleaned....
We have decided we prob won't stay here again...nothing compares to the Pep...😀
The room is quiet though so that a plus. The beds are too hard though for us.
Do I sound like a complainer or what... Currently we are playing yahtzee and drinking...raging huh?

Although the highlights are yet to come - Thanks for the 'JD' style updates. It's pretty much 'VisitReno Live' for all of us doing chores, gardening and other hum drum stuff.
Yup, we're jealous! |

Not much to report....I had one win the entire time here of $100...otherwise we were lucky to win more than $20 on anything! This place sucks! I do better at home in the Indian casinos. |

That's probably why they send me free room offers a couple times a month? |
