Monday - Going Home
10 AM sharp Charlie wakes me up, he lost his phone last night at Drai's and our plane leaves at 1. I found $200 in chips from the Bellagio in my pocket from last night so I need to go cash those in too (apparently thats where we ended up). Me and Charlie grab a cab to the Bellagio, I cash in my chips, and then we get cab to the Cromwell. Might have been quicker to walk honestly. Head up to Drai's, they cant find his phone anywhere. He leaves his info and we bounce. Charlie's flight is 30 minutes before ours so he's freaking out at this point. This whole trip ending up taking more than an hour do to traffic. I get back to my room and Andrew has thrown everything into my suitcase. I double check the room and its all set, we head out to grab a cab. The cab line's pretty long and we dont know if we can all squeeze into one so we decide to just get into a Suburban and head off to the airport. Charlies flying out a different airline so he gets dropped off first, we say our goodbyes and he rushes off. A few minutes later we're at our terminal. We check in, go through security, grab some breakfast, and then board our plane. This is where it gets terribly uncomfortable. We walk on the plane, and of course the attractive flight attendants friend from Thursday night is there. She looks at us and recognizes us right away. So we're at our seats, and she starts talking to us, and says "What happened Thursday night? The bouncer said you guys kicked us out?" Andrew goes into damage control and spins up some bullshit story that we didnt mean to kick you guys out and the bouncer was supposed to kick out someone else... I think she bought it because she said we should take a picture to send to her friend. We take a picture and she sends it to Andrew after she gets his number. Andrew fucked shit up bad here. We had a group text with the 6 of us guys the whole trip, Andrew tried to send the pic out saying "Hey we're on the flight with the attendant that Jon kicked out of our table on thursday" so that Matt and Charlie could see it. He never left the text with the attendant tho... so he sent the pic and that text back to her lol. To top it off the flight got delayed an hour on the runway haha. So that complete awkwardness, combined with my onset of alcohol withdrawals, made for one of the worst flights of my life. We did not get any free drinks on that flight lol.
This trip was one of the best times of my life. I would do it over 100 times exactly the same way if I could. I went $1500 over my budget somehow but I dont even care because it was worth it. I appreciate everyone reading my report, I hope you enjoyed it! Thanks for all the comments as well! We're in the very very early stages of planning a trip next year in the summer. We just have to save some cash and pay off our credit cards first haha!
