Another Burger

[Today’s run: 4.0 miles on the treadmill]

My conference ended at noon today so I took an Uber back up the Strip to Gordan Ramsay Burger for lunch.  Since I had run this morning on the treadmill, I figured I could do the burger thing again and still stay under my calorie limit for the day.

Uber dropped me off and I walked in and sat in the same chair I had on Tuesday evening.  I ordered the same burger and I went up-scale with the Truffle Parmesan Fries.  Again it was delicious.  Those two burger meals were the best eating I’ve done on the trip, by a lot.

Then I moseyed back toward the hotel and on the way I bought an ice cream cone at a sidewalk stand, for dessert you know.

About half way back to the hotel I bought a bottle of water from a street vendor for $1.  He probably buys them at Wal-Mart for $5 a case and then sells for $1 a bottle.  He had them on ice too.  It was the best deal I’ve seen since I came to Vegas.  A bottle of water in the hotel mini-bar is $6 I think.

Shortly after that I found the northern terminus of a free mono-rail train that goes between three casinos, ending at the hotel where I’m staying.  So I was happy to jump on that and finish the trip in cool comfort.
