There are very few places that I think one should visit in their life while on this earth and Las Vegas is one of those places. This is especially true when you get to go there with the love of your life (April) and your parents who graciously pay for the entire trip. We spent 3 nights in the "second city that never sleeps", Las Vegas, which is long enough for any normal human to spend in a place where money fly's out the door every 20 seconds.
I asked myself the question while gazing off into the bright lights of the Vegas strip, " How much does each hotel/casino spend every month lighting up there property to attract people to come to gamble/stay at their casino?" Don't know........don't really care
While in Vegas, we had the privilege of staying at the Bellagio Hotel & Casino. To me it was by far the most elegant of all the hotels in Vegas. The flower arrangements and decoration in this place were astonishing! (see facebook pics) The extensive detail from the lobby to the casino area were perfect in every sense of the way. We had a sweet room with a lake view. This gave us the opportunity to watch the fountain show every night we were there!
BTW: They had awesome bath robes that i took advantage of during my stay! So comfortable
Shows: We attended Stomp Out Loud on Friday night with my parents at the Planet Hollywood hotel. The show itself was phenomenal. The creative thought and hours of practice that go into doing a show like stomp rattles my brain. My favorite segment that they did was one with zippos & lighters! One of the most creative things I have ever seen. Pimpin!
The other show that we saw was "O" at the Bellagio. If you ever get the chance to go to Vegas, you MUST see this show! Its semi confusing to follow but the entertainment is the best in Vegas by far!
Don't ask if we won any money while we were in Vegas because we lost it ALL!! just kidding....no but seriously, Black Jack can be a brutal game. On the other hand, April had more success with gambling on this trip than I did. She schooled me in both Slots and Roulette!
I can't forget the food! Table 10- One of Emril's restaurants...... has the best dessert I have ever tasted in my life! Hollow donut holes filled with a chocolate custard sauce covered in brown sugar (my mouth waters just thinking about it). The Wine wad good and so was the steak! Table 10 perfected it all. Carnevino's was another place we went on the last night we were there. It was an Italian Steakhouse... we had a speed talker for a waiter... That was rough! The menu had things we had never heard of in your life but in the end the food was spectacular. (In the background during our dinner, there was a man trying to convince his date (a much younger lady to be his Sugar Mamma... bahahahahahahaha It didn't work!
Thank you Mom & Dad for the amazing trip!! Thank You April for great memories!
I love you all!
