Moon Palace Casino Day Fourteen and Fifteen - Last 2 days!

Saturday and Sunday went by in a blur.  We returned to the Marina Grill for breakfast.  Eh.  We did use our rafts again for the lazy pool and the regular pool.  We saw several people eying them with envy.  We also met an older couple, Linda and Jack Rubin from Vegas.  They are black banded VIP members.  Their experience at the resort was a series of very unfortunate events.  Just goes to show, the hotel is very inconsistent.  I felt badly for them.

I went to the spa two last times.  I was sad.  :(  If it was still free, on Monday, I'd squeeze one last one in. :) But alas, it now costs money.  We spent the last two days in the sun as much as we could.  We spent roughly 6 hours each day in the sun.  Every morning one of us woke up to see if we could catch the green flash.  No luck.  The clouds caused it not to occur.  Boo.

Dinner 
Dinner on Saturday night was at the Lucca for Spanish.  There was no tapas.  The food was decent.  The white fish in green sauce was my favourite.  I also ate several of the stone crab claws.  Angel the waiter from the breakfast somehow found guava juice for me.  Brian tried the lamb which was dry.  I agreed.  He also went for the white wine - some kind of chardonnay.  It was dry and ugh so nasty.

Dinner on Sunday was back at Spaggo.  NO salad bar!  It is because there were not enough people at the resort.  I was not happy.  I ordered too many appetizers and couldn't finish my main meal.  Brian ate two dinners - lasagna and rib eye.  Ugh.  I had caramel ice cream from the ice cream shoppe for dessert.  We also had some decent champagne for dinner.
