I vow to enjoy the perks of Vegas next time I go

November 21, 2007 by Tricia

Now that I’m starting to feel a little bit better (remember I got sicker on my trip to Vegas?) I’m feeling a little down that I wasn’t able to take advantage of being in Vegas.

Our hotel room overlooked the lovely pool area and while I don’t think we ever saw anyone swimming the weather was nice enough each day that we saw plenty of people soaking up the sun on the very comfortable looking lounge chairs.

Our hotel had a spa, hot tubs, all kinds of services and shops that we never used or visited … it’s really kind of sad when I think that the only service we really used was room service!

The next time we go to Vegas I think we’ll stay in a nicer hotel – ours had lots of amenities but wasn’t that nice over all and as I said the internet network sucked. So we’ll staying in a luxury hotel and take advantage of some of the perks. Hopefully we’ll also stop in a Casino and try some games or machines too rather than just walking through the casino. We did however manage to get ourselves escorted out of a casino though!

Such a gorgeous hibiscus

I brought our small hibiscus indoors about two weeks ago since it’s starting to get cold here. Actually tonights the first night that I’ve noticed it reach below zero! Brrr!

My hibiscus is happily upstairs in a sunny bedroom with all the other tropical plants and vines.

Each winter I cross my fingers that all these plants survive. Just being indoors doesn’t mean they’ll make it. They have to get used to being indoors in a drier environment again and then there’s pests like spider mites and white fly to contend with.

Well, whether my hibiscus survives or not it sure does produce beautiful flowers doesn’t it?

Don’t you hate when you have to buy extras to make something work?

November 18, 2007 by Tricia

You know, when we bought our HD DLP television a few years ago .. 2004 I believe, it didn’t even come with any HDMI switches. In fact at that time you really couldn’t even buy this type of connection in Canada, but of course if you want the best performance out of your HD television or say an HD DVD player (like we have) you really need one of these connections.

I can’t tell you how much that ticked me off when I found out that it didn’t have an HDMI connection. Oh sure it has the outlet for it, but the vital connection wasn’t included in what was then a close to $5000 TV?

I think I’m going to get one of these switches now so that we can hook up the HD PVR and the HD TV. Who knows, maybe we’ll get a second one so that we can also connect the HD dvd player with one as well. Naturally all of these items work with lesser connections but I bet the picture is so much better with an HDMI.

I really enjoyed Chicago

This weeks theme is I loved Chicago

I know I’m just back from Las Vegas, but I was busy and I was sick while I was there so while I enjoyed the city … well the strip I mean, I didn’t get a really good feel for the town. Chicago, on the other hand, which I visited last year, I managed to get a really good feel for and I just loved that city!

I found Chicago to be very much like the city I live in – Toronto. Yes of course there are major differences, but there are also a lot of similarities. I felt very comfortable there as I explored the downtown area. I’d definitely return to Chicago for another visit!
