After the wedding Brad and I planned a "mini honeymoon" in Vegas. We want to go somewhere hot in the winter so we saved our time off for a longer honeymoon then, but we still wanted to get away for a little bit to spend time together and get away from the everyday and just enjoy being newlyweds for a few days. So we went to VEGAS BABY!!
I would hardly say Vegas turned out to be anything but relaxing but it sure was fun. We had a lot of things we wanted to do and see in Vegas we spent the majority of our time walking, driving and sightseeing in Vegas. Here is a list of what we did in 3 days!
1. Visited the Hoover Dam in our awesome (complimentary) convertible rental car!
2. Stood in 2 states at once (in the middle of the Hoover Dam)
3. Cruised the Vegas "Strip" at night. 4. Watched the Fredmont Light show in 'Old Vegas"
5. Went to the "Bodies" exhibit at the Luxor
6. Went to the "Titanic" exhibit at the Luxor
7. Say Cirque du Soleil - KA . . . can I say Amazing!
8. Swam in one of the like 20 pools at our hotel (MGM Grand)
9. Walked what I believe was like 2km to our hotel room at least 5 times a day in our huge hotel! that will teach me to forget anything in hotel room ever again! (we were in room 7-522).
10. Rode the New York New York roller-coaster.
11. Shopped at the Las Vegas Outlet Mall!
12. Went to Toby Keith's Bar, and rocked the dance floor when the live band called us the "newlyweds" onto the dance floor then we were later comped almost our complete meal and drinks!
13. Got a little tipsy on one of those huge plastic cups that i saw everyone carring around on the strip so I had to have one!! BAD IDEA I again know why I do not drink, my stomach and booze to not agree with eachother (I stuck to water and juice the rest of the trip!)
14. Peaked in at Coyote Ugly - Las Vegas and bought a shirt!
15. Ate breakfast at the Rainforest Cafe, Drank tons of Starbucks and enjoyed the famous Vegas Buffet at our hotel.
16. Rode the Monorail.
17. Watched the outdoor Pirate show at TI (Treasure Island) and watched some drunk teenager jump in the 'ocean' in front of TI and get grabbed and taken away by security
18. Got heatstroke and felt sick
and I did all of that with my wonderful new Husband which made it crazy but great all at the same time!! What a great time we had and we both look forward to going back soon to take in all of the stuff we wanted to do but just didn't have the time too this time around. I never thought I would say this but Vegas is not what I expected and was a lot of fun! I would go back again in a heartbeat!
