APR 22, 25.. THE EDGEWATER CASINO HOTEL, LAUGHLIN, NEVADA

Patti and I are on our way back North to Alaska. We left Lake Havasu City this past Easter Sunday and drove here to The Edgewater. We plan to fly out of Las Vegas this upcoming Thursday, April the 24th. 

You have probably seen the first photos below previously, but it doesn't hurt to refresh your memories.

Crossing the Colorado River and looking back at The Edgewater.

In our opinion, The Edgewater is a very attractive hotel.

Now you will see the view we usually have as we look out from one of our rooms.

Again, there is also no doubt you've previously seen these photos below.

When we checked in last Sunday, our reservation was discounted because of our True Rewards Membership. Usually when you get a discounted room rate, you do not get a Colorado River View. No, you get the above view of the front parking lot. 

We understand that. We are 100% used to "Our Parking Lot" views.

Don't ask me why we got The Colorado River View! 

I feel the young lady who checked us in was very new because she kept asking the front desk supervisor questions. 

But "We will happily accept our good fortune."

Here we go with photos just taken yesterday.

Taa Daa. The Colorado River Room Views.

On the very right edge of the above and below photos, you see one of the stops made by the local Colorado River "Water Taxi".

There it goes down the Colorado River.

I will return further down below and show some close up views of the Colorado River "Water Taxi". But for now I want to stay with the views from our room.

Visitors rent Jet Boats and go racing up and down the Colorado River.

The below photos were taken as I walked down beside the Colorado River.

The Water Taxi stop nearest us.

Below is a photo of me that Patti snapped from our room when I was snapping the above photos.

The Colorado River "Water Taxi".

The water taxi does not run on a set time schedule. It just makes one continuous loop and arrives when it arrives.

It's loop begins at the Riverside Hotel. Then The Aquarius, Regency, Edgewater, Pioneer, Golden Nugget, Laughlin River Lodge, and finally Harrahs.

And away he went, twin outboard motors kicking up a wake!

And there you have it. Some brand new views that Patti and I haven't seen before. There is a lot more action on the Colorado River than in the Parking Lot out front! 

This is really a fun visit.
