In Vegas with the Batdorjs

Weeks ago we planned this trip to Vegas. Red Rock Rendezvous was happening the same weekend so Me and Hiroko had plans to head out there. This time though we were lucky to be accompanied by the Batdorjs, an inseparable mom and daughter combo of sweetness. Chimgee and her mom has never been to Vegas so we, Hiroko and I, were excited to show them around. Lucky for us, Michellle Su, of South Point comped our rooms for the weekend. Saturday, we went climbing at Red Rocks in the Morning and Blue Men Group in the evening. Urna, Chimgee’s mom, shopped most of the day. Kenny Suh recommended a different Thai place so we went there for dinner. Sunday morning we slept in a bit longer for we only had 5 hours of sleep the previous night due to a long fun conversation. For brunch we went to Paris Casino’s Cafe/Buffet for Champagne Brunch. We then spent the rest of the day shopping at Primm outlet and working out way back home.

Ernest's Birthday Gift

For Ernest’s last birthday gift we got him a sailing lesson with South Bay Sailing. His birthday past many many months ago, but we never got the chance to use the Groupon we got for him. Nearly a half a year went by before we scheduled a time to set sail. However, our first date, February 27th, was needed a rain check tsunami warnings. Our second date was set a week later on saturday which was cancelled due to rain. Finally, this last weekend on the 13th were we able to get out and do some sailing. Over all Me and Ernest has a great time learning a little about sailing. Hiroko on the other hand had a great 10 minutes then fell into deep suffering due to motion sickness. We had scheduled for 2 hrs of sailing, but we had to call it in early. Too bad we forgot to get the motion sickness pills because we were running late. Wes the instructor/captain was great. Informative, Funny, and great to chat with while sailing. I would definitely recommend you give them a call if you are ever interested in sailing. Check out their website if you get the chance http://www.southbaysailing.com/. After the sailings we headed down to Captain Kids and had ourselves some fish and chips with clam chowder followed by a nice sunset.
