Eating with the Animals

Today was the day I had to settle my losing baseball bet to Lynda. The White Sox beat the Red Sox so I had to buy lunch. We went to the Flamingo where former Hilton boss Cyril Burger wrote us a comp to the buffet.

While waiting for Cyril to return from lunch to give us a free lunch (some sacrifice losing a bet and getting a comp), we toured the grounds of Bugsy's former hotel and saw Pink Flamingos and African Pelicans. When we were seated in the buffet we had a front row seat to see even more creatures. Ducks, fish and swans paraded by us while we dined on a delicious buffet. I was sure the 4 desserts would send me into diabetic hell, but after yoga class my blood sugar was only 84. I'll never figure that out.

Yoga class was great tonight with Kim and live music. On the drive out there was a beautiful crescent moon and the planet Venus. Did you see it? Venus is so luminous it can be seen with the naked eye after sunset. Keep looking up.
