Vegas Vacation

Last week we ventured out to Las Vegas.

The boys were pretty pumped to be in Vegas. We stayed at the Venetian. It was beautiful but could have been more customer friendly.

The first night we went to see Mystere at TI. The pirate show in front of TI was way more family friendly the last time I was in Vegas. The show was good but very very dirty in a cheesy way.


The second day we ventured out down the strip. We quickly walked through Ceaser's. The Forum is still pretty and it had a H&M! It was three floors.

After the stop at H&M, we went over to the Bellagio. The boys lost some money while I walked through their fine art exhibit. They had some wonderful art. We ventured out into the heat to watch the fountain show out front. It was great.

We ate dinner at a great little Italian place in the shops attached to the Venetian. We headed back down the strip to Paris to go to the top of the Eiffel Tower. They made it sound more interesting than it was. It was basically just an expensive picture taking experience.

There was a couple up there who were standing VERY close to me while getting WAY too friendly. The smacking, wet kind of kissing and rubbing.

On our third day after spending the morning at the pool, we took a cab down to New York, New York. We rode the roller coaster that runs through the building.

I got a large margarita there that had an insect floating in it. Not so fun. After a very hot walk, we ended up at MGM. We all won money and saw them feed the MGM lions!


That took us on the hunt for Wayne Newton merchandise at the Tropicana. His website says he has a store there but he doesn't. Tropicana was nicer than I expected but we all lost money there. Boo. And then back to MGM for our show Crazy Horse Paris. It was a girlie show. I loved all the dancing. We ate at Pink's hot dogs for dinner. I've always wanted to try Pink's! By the time we walked all the way back to the Venetian I was beyond tired so I went to bed. The boys stayed up and played more. It was a great trip and we all came back breaking even or better.
