Default MGM Grand ... Great Trip!

Just came back from Vegas. Stayed at MGM Grand, which is one of my favorite hotels. The place has everything you need. I hardly even left the hotel.

Spent some time at MGM's Tabu ultra lounge. It was not that happening, but still very cool. Maybe I just went at the wrong time. Wanted to try Teatro, but did not get a chance, since it was dark when I stayed. Saw some great shows and finally caught Zumanity at NY NY, which was much better than I was expecting it to be based on the reviews. This is definitely not for kids and the best I could describe it was a cross between a classic vaudeville act and a very adult strip show (breath taking women ... and they have plenty of hunks for the ladies). I had some amazing meals at the new restaurants. The MGM buffet was fantastic with pre-shelled crab legs and drawn butter (wish more hotels had this). Another meal was at Seablue where I had wood smoked salmon that was out of this world. They also let you pick ingredients and make your own gourmet salad, which came out excellent. Ordered some lobster corndogs, which were good, but I still thought they tasted a lot like, well, "corndogs."

Another good thing about MGM is that the monorail stop is not that far of a walk to the main casino and hotel rooms (5-10 min. max). I wish I could say the same things about other hotels, where in some cases I think I would have walked less if I just skipped the monorail. Well, that is my 2 cents on my trip and I'm looking forward to going again soon.
