Vegas!!

Oh man Vegas was a blast!! We drove up 2 weeks ago for a friends wedding! I can't wait to go again!! It was such a short trip for us but so much fun! The drive took us about 5 hours. We left pretty late on Friday...I think we were on the road at 4pm cuz I had to work. Only hit a little traffic, but it is a very boring drive. Nothing but desert to look at till you hit Vegas!! We got there a little before 9pm Friday and started driving home at 10am Sunday!! Friday we hung out with Mark and Drew did a little gambling and finally went to bed about 2-3am ish. We stayed at Mandalay Bay and the walls are super thin so we were up at 7:30-8am. When they say you don't sleep in Vegas they mean it!! We were sharing a room with Mark and Kiley to save some money. Kiley had things to do with the bride in the morning so Mark, Dave and I went to breakfast, then made some sports bets and then headed out to the strip!! We took the free tram that dropped us off by MGM so I got to go see the tigers!! They are so cool and huge! They feed them dog raw hides as treats...it was so funny seeing them chew on those!! Then we went to the M&M store! That place is sooooo cool! They have every color of M&M you could think of!! It was fun getting a little of each color!! ;-) We will have M&M's for a while!! We walked the strip a little more, saw some crazy dressed people and then headed back to New York, New York to do the roller coaster!! It was super fun! You couldn't have your camera or anything because you go upside down so no pictures but it was awesome!! Mark even did it and he is not a fan of heights!! ;-) After that we headed back to the hotel and hung out at the pool till we had to get ready for the wedding!! The pool was pretty cool! They had a small lazy river, a wave pool and a regular pool!! They also had an adults only pool, but it cost $50 for guys to get in and $25 for girls so we didn't go there!! Hung out at the pool for a few hours and then headed up to the room to get ready for the wedding!! The wedding was beautiful and the reception was a blast! We were on the dance floor most of the night! They had the reception hall till 11 then we headed down to eyecandy - the club in the hotel!! Did some more dancing and drinking there and gambling then to sleep around 2:30-3am ish! Up at 8, got packed and on the road by 10am!! Dave and I really had a great time! It's a weekend we won't forget!! The only thing we will do next time that we weren't able to get to is walk the strip at night and see the fountains at the Bellagio!! Can't wait to plan that trip!! ;-)

We are on the right path!! ;-)

Nothing but desert and mountains!
Dave wanted to drive!!

Pretty sunset from the car!
We are there!!
Right after we parked the car!
They had cool fountains!
Ready to start drinking!
The Red Square! This place was crazy! It's a vodka bar and they bring you in a freezer, provide you with fur coats and hats to put on while you do shots of Vodka. It's so many people per bottle. We didn't go in, but heard all about it!
