Road Trip Part 1

Vegas here we come! Packed up the car with kids Cara, Colin, and their friends Cadence and Seth aka Syd and snacks for our 6 hour road trip. We left Monday at 10 am right on schedule.

My mother in law, Phyllis had to use up her timeshare points so she got us a place in Vegas. As always, nothing goes according to plan. It turns out there are 2 Tahiti's in Vegas. Tahiti Village and Tahiti Vacation Club. She "thought" she booked the Village. 2 bedroom suite, lazy river, tiki bar and the biggie WiFi.

 Wrong! We showed up there only to find out we were actually booked at the Vacation Club. Still a nice resort but older. Still the 2 bedroom suite but no tiki bar, lazy river or in room WiFi. And it's not what we had been hyping about all week by showing the kids the Village website.

After Phyllis gets on the phone and does some negotiating, we get 3 days at the Village in addition to the rooms we have at the Vacation Club! Only problem is it's only 1 bedroom and a living room. Definitely not for 6 people.

And did I mention Scott decided to fly in for a Wednesday to Saturday stay and drive back with us? No... Well...he did.  And did I mention its HOT in Vegas - like 111 and he doesn't like the heat?

So we decide that Phyllis will stay with kids at the VC and Scott and I will take 2 nights at the Village. So it's nice and quiet for him and not messy from 4 teenagers. We can use the facilities all will be good.

The WiFi is kind of spotty so...to be continued...

It is what it is...
Namaste
