VivA lAs VeGaS



After driving all through the night, we finally got to Vegas in a record 9 1/2 hours (usually a 12 hour drive, gotta love radar detectors, and Jeremy!) Our first stop was the Hoover Dam!



Then we checked in at our Hotel the EXCALIBUR.


We were so glad to be out of the car and in our hotel. . . yay BEDS!

we won some big money. . . .
. . . and I lost all mine :(

but i found a new love, electronic Roulette!

We walked the strip over and over and saw all the fun things like this giant ice cream thing,

Cesars Palace


The Luxor



Hotel Paris (the inside was gorgeouse but i didnt get a picture)


and the Bellagio's water show




We even got to go to a couple shows
The Tournament of Kings
(we got discount tickets to The Tournament of Kings after being roped in to a 3 hour long hell of someone trying to get us to purchase a timeshare. I'm still not sure if those three hours were worth it but it did save us $200.)

and Criss Angel BELIEVE!
Even though we extended our trip while we were there, it was eventually time we had to come home.
Good Bye Las Vegas. . .
