Really did nothing today. Just wandered around Vegas checking out spots we haven't been before then another Buffet at Bacchanal Buffet, Caesars Palace. Up there with Wynn Buffet. Americans must really like their queues as the line up was 100+ people waiting. We used the VIP queue which I recommend you use every time in Vegas.

Buffet breakfast (yep heaps of food) and off to the North Vegas Premium Outlets. Out of all the outlets we have been to I think this one is the best. Between Calvin Klein and Timberland I reckon I saved about $400 and have my clothes and shoe shopping done for another year. It was getting bloody hot and these outlets are not roofed i...
