September 13, 2012 - Mashantucket, Connecticut

Today our "adventure" was to visit the largest casino in North America, Foxwoods Resort Casino 
http://www.foxwoods.com/aboutus.aspx, on the Mashantucket Pequot Indian Reservation.  To say it is huge is an understatement...the entire resort comprises 4,700,000 sq. ft. of space of casinos, restaurants, shops, hotel rooms, spas, theaters, etc. http://www.foxwoods.com/uploadedFiles/Pages/About_Foxwoods/resort_map.pdf 


 
We had fun just exploring the resort and eating (or "pigging out") at the Festival Buffet, which was excellent!





 We did "try our luck" at the slot machines in one of the casinos, to no avail!  Fortunately, we decided before hand that we could only afford to spend $20 "playing games"!  We had fun trying but, as always, Glenn's luck was better than mine!

Unfortunately that's all of the pictures we took.  We didn't take our cameras into the resort because we weren't sure if we could take pictures in the casinos. We used my phone for the two in the restaurant and, obviously, the lighting was bad.  Oh well.....

It was a fun day and we came home to relax and read but fell asleep instead!  What can I say!
