Day Four, May 30



 I took my time getting ready this morning. I didn’t leave the room until about 11 o’clock. I went downstairs to Cafe Hollywood and there wasn’t a lineup for once so I decided to go in there for some breakfast. I had a lovely plate of chicken and waffles. It was delicious. 

Then I attempted to catch an Uber to take me down to Fontainebleau. An Uber came and it was a Chevy Suburban. I discovered that I am unable to climb into a Chevy Suburban, so I had to pay the cancellation fee and order another one and hopefully this time it would be one I could get into. The next one that came was manageable and we had a nice drive down to the Fontainebleau. 

I think Fountainebleau is most beautiful casino I have ever seen. I love the high ceilings and the fresh cool air.  The music is all recognizable tunes, but not so loud that they blast your ears off like at Planet Hollywood. Everything is perfectly clean. There’s staff everywhere to answer any questions you might have. I’ve never seen such a well maintained place.

I did the tier match thing and got my Fountainebleau card. First I  sat down to play at a Wicked Wheel slot but there was a big crowd of people around it so I wasn’t enjoying that. So I left and wandered over to a MO MUMMY machine. I have never played this before. I kept getting enough bonuses to keep me alive. I was on that machine for hours.  I ordered a gin and tonic and was amazed that it came in a gorgeous glass glass!  I enjoyed my afternoon there very much.

 I did have one mishap though.  I visited the men’s washroom again.  Yes it was occupied and yes I got some weird looks.  I maintain that the sign out front is very misleading.  I will share a picture of the sign.

At 5:30 pm Mike and Terin joined me for dinner at MotherWolf.   I have been hearing many Vloggers rave about it so I wanted to experience it.  I would never go back to this restaurant again.   It was literally the noisiest restaurant I have ever been in. And to add to that they have pounding music like it was a nightclub.  The staff was very pleasant and they made efforts to try and explain the incomprehensible menu to us.  We decided on some meatballs and a plate of prosciutto and bread as appetizers.  Then we each had a plate of pasta.  Both Mike and I had carbonara and Terin had something else.  We also ordered a sliced up steak to share.  The steak was awesome.  I wasn’t all that thrilled with the rest of it.  For dessert Terin and I had a delicious pudding thing and Mike had some gelato.   It was a beautiful room but the noise level is insane.   It was a “one and done” for me.  

Next we took another Uber back to Planet Hollywood where I turned in and the kids went to a comedy show at the V theatre.
