Had dinner with Ariena on Friday night at the Riverboat Casino restaurant in New West www.royalcitystar.bc.ca - the food was good and the restaurant was quite big. You don't have to go into the casino to get to the restaurant and you can't tell you're on a boat (i.e. no rocking motion) so it would've been okay for Kirk and Elaine's baby Kali. I won $5 at the poker slots - started with $5, got up to $17.50 and then cashed out at $10. Ariena accidently pushed a button that betted 10 quarters. I called over an employee to see if I could lower the bet but that wasn't possible. Ariena brought me good luck as I got a good hand from that bet! Thanks!

Going to the Riverrock Casino on Tuesday with Curtis for dinner at the buffet restaurant: www.greatcanadiancasinos.com/riverrock - I have a 2 for 1 coupon. Looking forward to it as I've only eaten in the food court there.

Here there are only 25 cent poker slot machines. Can't wait until we go to Vegas for New Year's as there are 5 cent ones there.
