Back from Las Vegas! I had such a great time. It was nice to get away from everything. I am horrible at loading pictures onto this page, so you will have to see them the good ol' fashioned way (and there are A TON of them!)
Thursday: Woke up at 3:40am and got ready; picked the girls up at their house at 4:30am and headed to the airport; boarded flight at 7:10am, arrived in Las Vegas at 8:30 their time; took taxi to hotel; took hotel shuttle to strip; ready for lunch had McDonald's breakfast instead; stopped at Mandalay Bay and took in the sites; visited the Shark Reef exhibit; became jealous of the Mandalay Bay pool (it was a beach with a wave pool and also a lazy river); went over to the Luxor and saw the IMAX movie The Mystery of the Nile; had some Little Caesar's pizza; took shuttle back to hotel; took nap; got ready to go out in the evening; went to Caesars Place and walked around the shops; ate at the Cheesecake Factory; made our way to MGM Grand in heels (1.3miles); got into Studio 54; danced until feet were unbearable; took taxi to hotel; slept!!!!!!
Friday: Woke up arpund 9:15 and had some free breakfast; headed to the strip via shuttle; some more window shopping at the shops at Caesars Place (turns out first day had missed a WHOLE section); had Planet Hollywood for lunch; headed to the Mirage; went to Siegfried and Roy's Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat; saw cute dolphins and lots of tigers and lions and one elephant; had some ice cream; headed back to the hotel and cooled down in the pool; Jaime and Michelle headed out to a show called Thunder Down Under; I stayed a watched a little TV and read poolside; Jaime and Michelle brought back some Pizza Hut; slept!
Saturday: Woke up around 9:30 and had some free breakfast; headed to the strip via shuttle, walked a ton and saw the new Wynn hotel along with some of the other ones on the north side of the strip; hungry and hot stopped at Chipotle for a late lunch; headed back to the hotel; cooled down in the hotel pool; got ready for the night; headed out to the Flamingo and had the buffet (it was very tasty); took the city bus downtown to Freemont Street; got a henna tattoo; bought some goodies for family and friends; saw the light show; waited at the scary bus stop; heard a poor Irishman talking about how we had just gotten pick-pocketed in one of the casinos; took the long, hot bus ride back (it took nearly 90 mins); took taxi home and slept
Sunday: Woke up and had breakfast and then went back to bed!; decided we had enough hotness of walking the strip and hung out poolside all afternoon; got ready for evening; had some good ol' McDonalds in NYNY; went to Coyote Ugly; disappointed we stayed for around 5 mins; walked to the Bourban Street hotel and hung out till our show started; saw a hilarious hypnosis show! took taxi home and slept!
