We left Honolulu yesterday, and I had to transfer in San Francisco.
San Francisco Airport looks new and spiffy. Haven't been here in at least four years. The United Club is also nicer looking, but far too small. People need to wait to find a seat. I had a soup and beer, caught the flight to Las Vegas. Business class on United was terrible. The seat had no leg rest and reclined maybe two inches. Better than the next plane to Vegas which had no adjustment. Worst of all, I asked for peanuts or chips, and the steward said that I needed to go to their magazine and pay for ordering them. I said, isn't this business class? He said no, this is first class. United? Can you believe this?
The sun was setting, so after leaving Honolulu at 8:45AM, landed in Las Vegas at 9:30PM . A taxi to the Circa with tip would have cost around $50. Took Bell Trans for $20, with tip. The problem is that the van has other passengers heading for the Strip. Las Vegas Boulevard is undergoing repairs and is a total mess. Took around an hour and a half to reach downtown...but got some nice photos.
Finally, finally, Circa, which is in the "safe" corner of the Fremont Experience, a long bar facing the attraction.
Across the street from the Circa was the California Hotel. I was hungry, so had an oxtail soup with beer.
The Circa is gorgeous with a huge sport book room, and our room view is of the pool.
Woke up this morning to this view.
