I could continue my diatribe of how much I detest the Vegas airport, but quite honestly, I am way too exhausted to expend the last morsel of energy I have to do so.
Yesterday was absolutely brutal. My flight that was supposed to take off at 5:05pm, was, SURPRISE, delayed.
I have never seen so many people packed in like sardines at the Vegas airport. I mean, yes, we all know it is one of the busiest weekends of the year. Yes, we know that no matter what time of year you go to Vegas, Sunday is hectic. However, in the many times I have been to Vegas, I have never seen such a mob scene as I witnessed yesterday. I had to stop and ask myself a few times if, in fact, I was at the Tokyo airport. There were people everywhere and you literally could not move from gate to gate.
Unfortunately, I couldn't get a flight for Monday, so I had to weather the storm, suck it up, and take my flight, whenever they decided to take off, back to Tampa. I think I got in bed somewhere between 4-4:30am. I chugged some Nyquil, and passed out until 11am. Now, I am sitting at work with my eyes barely open and an odd head spinning sensation. Oh happy day.
I love Vegas....
Oh yes, I did get to meet Coach Knight yesterday. I was terrified. He couldn't have been nicer or more friendly to me, but I was still feeling scared. He also took a picture with me & Shawn. It was certainly a highlight of March Madness.
Shawn returns tonight, hopefully, in one piece, only to return to Vegas on Wednesday. God bless him.
Other highlights of the trip that I'm too exhausted to describe in detail included Le Reve - the amazing acrobatic aquatic (say that 5 times fast) show at the Wynn, and, the soon-to-be-legendary XS club at Encore. This place was unreal. I felt like I was in Monaco. Incredible.
I'm tired. More later.
